need it's 29 I want to say but I just thank you run that for me now go ahead and get back on my boat and step sit on that seat for me please I don't my [ __ ] all right just do possession yeah let's do that let's go back where are you guys heading to saish you're going to saish Marina okay sit back let's go to fill real quick sit back down for me please all right so what we're going to do right now we're going to head back to Phil Foster okay at that boat ramp okay what's going to happen is is you're underage you're driving a vessel okay you drew the log Law whatever it may have be all right so there's going to be a PBT it's a portable breath test okay you're going to blow into it if you're above a 0.02 you're going to get a citation today okay the citation you still to go home okay but you'll have a court date do we understand that okay if it's below a 02 cool you guys are still going to get charged with a possession of alcohol by underage okay do we understand that now how you guys break that up it doesn't matter to me it's either one or all I have a lot of paper I'll give it to you as your choice so you guys can comp powwow how you guys want to do that it can either be the captain the owner of the boat or it can be all of you guys I do not care okay the thing I care about you guys have a handle of Crown you guys have a shitload of Bud Light red stripes and some Selzer stuff that is ridiculous but you guys have a lot of it and none of you are even 20 anybody 20 oh you're so close but you're one year away one month away July would have been the better month to do this okay so that's what's going to happen right now um and yeah any questions any comments any concerns so um if you guys want to come to the bow or you guys want to go to the back and figure out how I'm going to write either all of you or one of you for the possession of alcohol because you're on the boat with alcohol you are in possession of it doesn't matter if you're sitting in the back or sitting in the front do we understand so it's one person gets it or everybody gets it do not care okay so let me know what it is go ahead and talk about it um but for you yes so like I said if you're below a 0.02 okay that's the threshold for 21 year olds okay if you're below a 02 then you're fine if you're above it you're in you're what's called operating a vessel above a 02 while under the age of 21 okay it is a it's not a misdemeanor it's a court it's an infraction okay it's a little more serious than a parking ticket okay however you'll go to court it's a mandatory court date okay you'll go to court and then after you go to court you'll go to uh what do you call it uh they'll probably assign you you either some kind of uh drug and alcohol class you have to go to there depending on your history if you have any there'll be probation it depends on your history I don't know what it is it all varies upon your previous history do you understand um if you have yeah if you have none then that works in your favor mistakes happen people drink it's okay shouldn't be doing it one because you're under 21 but two you're in public okay so guys brought this on yourself on okay so this is your boat it's my dad boat so y'all tell me about how uh this so either one person gets AIP Tak it everybody or everybody on the has it's his discretion so what it sounded like he's given you guys the option one person can take the citation for possession of alcohol and if you guys can't figure it out he's going to write everybody it's either all of them get minor in possession or not minor but underage because they're not minors but underage or uh what do you call it or one gets it it's up to you guys figured it' be a nice option I don't have to give it because technically you guys are all in possession but it's an MIP charge I don't know what you mean by MIP minor possession you're not a minor so it's just underage how does that work it off you can fight I get paid overtime I get over you get over I get overtime so I'll go to court I no no I know no I'm just saying like just so because a lot of people think that oh I go to court and they won't show up no we show up hello I hear you I didn't know was FWC yeah it's FWC it's not Lakeworth how are you I'm doing good how you doing ma'am I'm pretty upset I'm sorry you feel that way what you upset about ma'am so actually I work with FWC I all the do a lot of volunteering work okay I'm retired director of LD okay so there's not going to be a wiggle room on alcohol ma'am you should know that there's no there's no wiggle room on alcohol ma'am you know that I didn't know you know that ma'am she do you know that or not ma'am because I know you're not asking me to wiggle room on alcohol no I'm just saying that she does not drink at all okay if she doesn't drink when she blows into that it should be a 0 and then we don't have to worry about it again but if she said she has drank or she has drank which you said she doesn't drink that's why she was operating so if she hasn't drank it should blow triple zeros and we're do it if she refuses don't want to do it then I already explained to her her the consequences for that okay so if you say she doesn't drink then you should advise your daughter to go ahead and blow and we we worry we don't have to worry about this you let me know okay so I mean I can tell that you're not really willing to I'm not willing to look over a child drinking no I'm not I'm not willing to overlook someone on a vessel operating a vessel that has been drinking no I do not play with that can you okay can you tell me what the options are the options are she blows right now okay she because she is underage or she's under the age of 21 I'm not running a Bui route I'm running a 02 violation which is a 21y old or under operating a vessel while having a impairment on AKA drinking okay she blows into this right here she blows into this it's a 02 or lower she's not operating The Vessel while while intoxicated thought it was 8 no that's for the Bui route which I explained to her I don't want to run that because she's under 21 I'm not trying to ruin a kid's life okay this right here is an infraction either way it's an infraction with a mandatory Court we either way one she has a leg to stand on the other she doesn't one she has a way to battle it the other one she doesn't refusal is the Dozen no matter what she will get those she'll get those okay so if she refuses she loses her license for a year she loses her ability to operate a vessel and depending on the court the Court can take away her license all right because she is a minor I mean she not a she is under a 21 okay there was a boatload of licker on there okay okay so that will go in the report obviously so she didn't even want to go in the boat today that's it's crazy it's okay her and begging her to go she and I are sitting on the couch working on her College [ __ ] I know she told me about youing the rers problem I understand ma'am I'm not trying to ruin her life I just appr my thing is that is the thing that kills literally I was talking to all my friend I mean I so I mean I worked in law enforcement my whole life I mean I'm a volunteer I feat all your youth Huns I mean I was talking to all my buddies that were all the Marine units for a long time but that's all pbsf so I didn't know it was at WC and I'm totally with you I mean I'm a [ __ ] law enforcement person just like you yeah this is my kid oh and listen I understand you I understand you want to help your kid and that's why I was telling her she's a big girl she's over I can't I can't I don't know what I can't give advice I can't give advice I'm not allowed to do that it's yeah I got you I gave her the courtesy because she is over the age of 18 I didn't have to wait I don't have to wait but at the same time I have no problem waiting because it is a decision I understand that and she's she won't even more out she doesn't want to drink and she's like I'm only three three months from my birthday I'm not going to screw it up I well she told me one month but it's okay yeah one she told me one month but we found out it was in September she like a straight A kid she's like the like this kid works so hard and now she's out with these [ __ ] I she didn't that's even I okay she didn't even want to go so yeah so like I said there's so she if it shows up so she if she shows a drink of whatever and I don't know I mean she only been out there about dress over here so there are things how would I say there are things like called breath Mal bre breath alcohol well she hasn't had any alcohol since I don't know about 20 minutes now 30 minutes now so that that won't be the indicator on here now it's just going to be if it's in sister or or not okay again above .02 it is what it is let's be honest do you I mean I'm sure you took some kind of drink you're obviously not drunk I mean she's clearly I only dropped her off on the boat a half hour ago so you haven't even been out that long so come here baby if I could take so so if she does have some well if she's below a 0.02 then that Situation's over with do you think the situation of for her for that to show up on that how like if she took a sip or a couple sips of a drink it all depends on how fast she metabolizes metabolizes alcohol you know what I mean it depends on when the last time her drink was and all this it has been if she's if what she's told me was right it's probably about hour I can't like I said I can't tell you to blow or not to blow I can only give you your options higher than a point 2 seems like you could barely just take one little sip well they're not leing all to have anything on their system that's what that's why it's a 0.2 okay so I just don't know the building rules no it's not it's not an arrestable offense this is this is my best friend Jeff okay he just got off work he's a lawyer that's why he problem he knows how upset I am like I was like oh my God out of all people on the planet has to be Katie like she wasn't even operating in the boat she didn't want to go in the boat they were begging her to go so I just asked him like I don't know what CU I I was calling all my buddies a PBSO but then I pulled up I'm like oh it's FWC I don't know the rules with with with voting but he's saying that he's not trying to charge her with a Bui that it's just like underage what's it called under under under 02 operating a vessel above a 0.02 while operating The Vessel she can blow 0.15 for allic care right now it doesn't matter so if if she can you explain that again for .02 okay she shouldn't have anything in her system if she has above a 0.02 there is a mandatory court date that she has to go to it is no it's underage drinking yes it is not underage drinking in the sense of driving a vehicle okay because it's not automatic suspension of her license but it could be if she refuses like I was telling her there is a mandatory uh hours of service there's a mandatory fine there's no operation of a vessel and now the license gets put onto the table if she blows and she happens to blow over again doesn't matter if it's a 0.02 doesn't or 03 or a 0.1 five I don't care okay because that's what I'm running and I can't run a Bui section after that okay I've allowed the powow it is about to get to cutting time where I need to have her make a decision it it doesn't make a difference all right so you're going to blow low you're going to keep going until you hear click I'll tell you when to stop ready deep breath there you go6 okay so if I did Bui route this right here is impairment okay one more time confirm okay so you drank more than what you told us okay I told you one drink that's all that's that's more than one drink unless that's a very strong drink it probably was okay
