You could talk to the Homicide Detective that investigated the case. I think he is retired, but I am sure he will explain it in the clearest terms.
Miami-Dade Detective Greg Smith

Hey Kramer kid,
I know its not easy sitting on this side of the fence when you had your dad behind bars for the last twenty more years. I lost mine about the same age you lost yours , 19-20 right? so I know the frustration of not having your dad around. You should get together with the kids of Don Aronow and make peace, I am sure they miss their dad as well so you should have something in common. I am sure you will get better answers from them about who made Apache or any other powerboat than all of us on this post. As a matter of fact, go to Wikipedia, it has a good resume on Don Aronow's history and it does mention your father as well.....now think about Don Aronow's kids, write to them and let me know if they think they would like to contribute to your saving operation. Now please, for the respect of other people's grief, get some help but not this way.

I have a 28 Center Console built by Eric with twin 250's.......seen plenty of air and everybody stayed in the boat.

I second human error.

Sorry to bring it back up but just saw and read this post today.

I love these threads!!!

Michael Aronow said something to the effect of, "The Kramers weren't involved; that's just stupid."

Ben is serving a life sentence for money laundering, not murder.

I have said repeatedly that the Aronow/Kramer thing (and I knew both men) was a conflict between two tough guys. Neither one knew how to give an inch...

I can say this. I was never fearful of Aronow, but I would NEVER have crossed Ben. So in my mind there is no contest.

Neither guy was an altar boy and neither is worthy of hero worship IMHO..... but in all fairness.. Ben reportedly did some major league stuff and certainly paid, and continues to pay, the price. If Aronow, in fact, cheated Ben in a business deal...as the song says..."You don't pull on Superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, you don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger, and you don't mess around with BEN!"

As far as young Kramer is concerned.....tell your dad..I said hello...

Ben was worth so much, that whatever amount, if any, was lost in the deal (and no one can agree on what that amount actually is) was trivial.

So, if we assumed that Ben's PRIDE led him to order the killing of Don Aronow...

...why the hell would he have waited almost TWO YEARS to do it?

And Tjscarab, Im sure there are enough people out there that Ben has a beef with besides me...
What evidence was that, exactly?

Did he have anything to Gain by saying He DID Do It? If he didn't do it, why would he claim he did? Just to ensure he never got out? I don't think so.....

He didn't claim he did it he claimed "No Contest" so he could get out of Metro Dade as the accomodations aren't very appealing!!!!
