[Quillback]

Yeah bad deal all around.

Wrench I do bot think they got the autopsy back yet. they might find drugs in there also.

I'm sure sorry for the kid and his friends and family. I'm also sorry for the highway patrolman who surely didn't want this to happen or knowingly endanger the kid.

This I also agree with. I feel terrible for all involved no matter what the details are.

If it had been a 20 y/o female from Missouri driving the boat, do you think would she have been cuffed and stuffed?

Male subject = strike one.

From another state = strike two

Underage and presumed buzzed = strike three

You're Out!

Underage is three strikes in one. It's illegal. Not much more needs to be said than that.

And who here is not guilty of it?

[Old plug]

yes to that wrench.

We have all been 20 yrs old also. I is a very dangerous period in a mans life.

[5bites]

And who here is not guilty of it?

Probably all of us are.

And who here would not be deserving of the consequences of it had tragedy happened because of our poor judgement?

Responsibility is that tricky word that most don't want to be associated with.

[Terrierman]

Sad deal all around. Almost as sad to see the blame game play out.

This could of easily been avoided with a Type I life jacket. I can understand not securing a person onboard in the event of capsizing a boat. But tying their hands without enough floatation is inexcusable. The water patrol needs to change their floatation standards.
