There is a
huge difference.
The State had just
one expert witness on the boating crash:
Lt. Dunleavey.
A high-priced defense attorney can bring in
a dozen boat expert witnesses—then select the one who can present the best crash "story".
The defense can also "purchase" the silence of any other boat experts. (Keeping them "on retainer", and never calling them at all for any reason).
The jury
and the media will never hear—or learn of—any of those "missing" expert witnesses.

Impassionate people should recall that among the three parties to this crash,
the average BAC was .13 . With shoreline or another boater, this was a fatality waiting for impact.
Passionate people will call this "an accident".
