There was a boating "accident" this evening. 2 dead, 2 missing and 6 made
it to shore in the river near Tracy, CA. 10 people in a 14' aluminum
skiff.
No life jackets, alcohol may be involved. Sad. They were all from
Guatemala, and lived in Oakland. Some were relatives. The paper referred
to the driver as the "Capt." Clueless. The driver is in jail on
manslaughter charges and $400k bail. Hard to put the blame on him in my
estimation. They were all adults and should have some responsibility for
their own wellbeing.

They should have never made it away from the dock... I would have
called the cops if I had seen that boat leaving the dock.

1 am is when the reports came in. And the cops would probably be at the
coffee shop anyway.
