More than two years after a Labor Day weekend boat crash killed a 17-year-old girl in Florida, the real estate developer operating the boat with 12 teen girls aboard while celebrating his daughter’s birthday now faces a homicide case that could put him in prison for a decade and a half.

George Pino, now 54, had up to now only faced misdemeanor charges for careless boating even though the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission found more than 60 empty alcohol containers on the boat after the Boca Chita Key-area crash on Sept. 4, 2022. But a firefighter who responded to the scene has since told Miami prosecutors that alcohol did play a role in the tragedy, local NBC affiliate WTVJ reported Thursday on the new vessel homicide case in the death of Luciana “Lucy” Fernandez.
