"So they're charging the dude in the sailboat, NOT THE DRUNK DRIVER OF THE BOAT DOING 40+?"

I think the sailboat guy was drunk. In MA if a driver is drunk the accident is his fault no matter what...

As ridiculous as it might sound, the prosecutors, colleagues of Perdock's, are claiming that Thornton's death was Dinius' fault because, although he was not the skipper of the boat, he was at the helmsman's position, he was under the influence of alcohol, and that the boat's running lights were not on.

Even so, the driver of the powerboat, law enforcement, was ALSO drunk.
