Quite a valid point actually Kes. For what he's done it's pretty certain the States will definitely pass a severe sentence. Now had the guy whose boat it was & who found him had suffered a personal loss due to the actions of this creature, it's almost certain the outcome would have been different. Maybe not to the extreme of killing him, but Harbours & Marinas are treacherous places & a severe fall resulting in broken limbs & face can't be ruled out.
