That said, Perjury is probably the least-enforced law on the books.
Second: That would be illegal for a lawyer. It is called "
suborning of witnesses", and resulted in the recent impeachment of a President. (No conviction resulted).
IMO, in today's P-C world, the "vetting" of ALL Presidents has gone AWOL.

The link is now broken, but FLL did, indeed, read of the "hiding a beer can" wrapper here:
Sold for the "discreet" boater.
It appeared about when
Lake Norman, previously cited, departed from its "dry" county status. (Shortly after becoming a "wet" county, an airborne boat departed the lake, hit a guard rail, was hit by a car, spun, and flipped over onto its passengers (!) on Interstate
77.
Serious injuries resulted and beer cans were strewn in the median.

legally-drunken passengers on a boat, may I be excused if I "wave-off" any future rescues?
