This thread is great! I just read all 34 pages. From hulls, molds, different companies and the people behind them, murders and drug trafficking it's all mind boggling! It's nice to connect some of the dots here and there and get a better feeling about the history of this sport... truly amazing and I'm sure there is soooo much more we will all never know. Someone need to make a movie about all this! WOW!

Its the only option. The next president will cave in, its their only move. Nobody has the balls to make the only other move and that's enforcing federal law with federal law enforcement against the legal states. Easier to go legal.

I'm sure manslaughter will always be relevant to early release and/or parole. But, I thought we were talking about the money laundering? Which is probably irrelevant at this point.

Money laundering conviction irrelevant? Not when he can't get out, every conviction is relevant.

Did he try it again??? It takes big stones to try and escape in a helicopter. It's hard to believe that in over 3 minutes nobody noticed a helo in a prison and tried to stop it.

They said on CNN their rule (or law) is for the police not to get engaged (or something like that) with a jail break. Fuked up. Wonder what the reason or data is for that and then what they do to track them down ? They did not get into that part. Maybe I'll investigate it later

You guys have to read Blue Thunder...gives a lot of reality to the Aronow murder and what exactly the Kramers were up to.

NOBODY knew "exactly" what Kramer was up to.

The Movie
Speedboat racing champion and multimillionaire, Ben Aronoff, leads a double life that lands him in trouble with the law and drug lords.
