    So, a couple of days ago super-yacht sunk off the coast of Sicily. Among the people apparently lost is British tech tycoon, Mike Lynch, who was recently acquitted in multiple fraud charges. Also missing is the chairman of Morgan Stanley. He appeared as a witness for Mr. Lynch.

    Now, the weird bit. On the same day, his co-defendant in the fraud case, who was also acquitted, was killed after being struck by a car while out jogging.

      Apparently, they pissed off the wrong people.

        Certainly it's possible, but the water-spout is actually a pretty believable occurrence, and the driver in the other death stayed at the scene.

        We shall see...

            I think it is true. From what I have hear, the boat was either in dock or near dock and nearby boats were a witness to what happened.

              What a horrible way to die. :eek

              https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/four-victims-mike-lynch-yacht-died-suffocation-autopsies-suggest-2024-09-05/

              Initial examinations of four of the people killed when British tech tycoon Mike Lynch's family yacht sank off Sicily last month indicated they had died of suffocation as oxygen ran out on the stricken vessel, judicial sources said on Thursday.

              The bodies of the dead, except for the cook, were found in the cabins on the left-hand side of the boat, where the passengers may have tried to search for remaining bubbles of air, the head of Palermo's Fire Brigade said last month.
