Prosecutor Calls Pino’s Biscayne Bay Crash Reckless, Not an Accident
TL;DR Summary
During closing arguments, lead prosecutor Laura Adams urged a six-person jury to find George Pino guilty of manslaughter and vessel homicide, saying his decision to speed through Biscayne Bay with teens aboard—driven by rushing to his daughter’s birthday—was reckless and would have resulted in tragedy regardless of luck; GPS and witness evidence showed he traveled about 47 mph for nine seconds before hitting Channel Marker 15, killing Lucy Fernandez and injuring another teen.
