Oville Posted June 4 #351 Share Posted June 4 30 minutes ago, chengkp75 said: If you read Hawaii Code 13-252-9, under Part 3 "Ocean Waters, Navigable Streams and Beaches" it states: "As incident to a lawful arrest, the arresting authority may take legal custody of any personal property which is the subject of or related to any violation of these rules. The property may be released only upon approval by the court which has jurisdiction of the case." Which means that, just like in Maine where illegal hunting can result in confiscation of the gun, car, boat, or ATV used in the illegal activity, that Hawaii can confiscate the ship, and the line would have to appeal to court to get it back. The Captain would also be subject to arrest. Probably enough teeth to get their attention. I don’t think Hawaii wants to lose the cruise’s lines. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judge, shame and finish up with some virtue signaling before the facts come out. Timing is key. Must be done very quickly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a bit of the "human nature" coming out in many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I see as the big difference is going back in history, the potential impact for jumping to conclusions was limited to the family dinner table. These days a “erroneous conviction” has the potential to reach hundreds, thousands, maybe millions within hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
