Updates....

Alcohol involved. Oh, really?

No criminal charges for couple whose boat hit Pell Bridge, prompted search - News - The Newport Daily News - Newport, RI

No criminal charges for intoxication because of time delay. Same old game, if you're drunk, buy yourself time, even go have a beer or two, so they have other charges but no DUI.

But if you shoot him, then she doesn't have him, does she? Perhaps you should think through the shooting a bit more.

I wouldn't get on a boat with these lunatics, but they might be a hoot to have a few drinks with.

They both got off lucky. Potential two DUIs or loss of life/limb. Instead a minor fine.

It's like someone parks their car into a tree, runs home and leaves it. They get reckless and leaving scene, but escape the DUI.
