Are you about that Jet Ski Life?


https://www.yahoo.com/news/no-charges-shooting-man-saved-161845703.html?.tsrc=fp_deeplink

South Carolina officials say they won't file charges against a boater who fatally shot a man that he helped rescue from the water.

Morgan and a woman were in distress, having fallen off their Jet Ski into the lake, Oconee County sheriff's officials said earlier. The two had no life jackets and the Jet Ski was circling.

The 74-year-old man and his wife on a pontoon boat drove over to help fish the pair out of the lake, the sheriffs office said. The couple on the boat told authorities Morgan became agitated once he got on board and started assaulting them.

Investigators were told he may have wanted to get back on the Jet Ski. They also believe there may have been an argument between Morgan and the woman he was with before they fell into the water. Sheriff Mike Crenshaw told The Journal of Seneca that Morgan may have been intoxicated.

The woman who was with Morgan pushed him back into the lake in an attempt to defuse the situation, the sheriffs office has said. The couple on the pontoon helped him aboard again, and the man shot him after a second encounter, saying he feared for his and his wifes lives.

Honestly it's tough to say - shooting 7x year old drunk guy seems excessive, but you're in a small confined space on your boat, and you could easily trip, fall off, and have this jackass steal your boat leaving you for dead.

What is the point of saving him just to shoot him? It takes a certain kind of psychopath to do that. And they won't charge them smfh.

ok i had it backwards

still think it's fair next - even more justifiable because the older guy has much less physical ability to defend from a young assaulter

I get what this means but it's still kind of funny to imagine a hungry jet ski zeroing in on its dinner
