Jose Fernandez did more than drink the night his boat crashed:
Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez had cocaine and alcohol in his system when his boat crashed into a Miami Beach jetty last month, according to toxicology reports released Saturday.
It is not clear whether Fernandez, 24, was steering the boat at the time of the crash on Sept. 25, which killed him and two of his friends. Fernandez had a blood-alcohol level of 0.147, well above Florida’s legal limit of 0.08, according to autopsy reports released by the Miami-Dade County medical examiner’s office.
Kenneth Hutchins, an associate medical examiner, listed the cause of death as “boat crash” for Fernandez and his friends Emilio Jesus Macias, 27, and Eduardo Rivero, 25.
His friends did not as high a level of alcohol in their systems. I suppose it’s possible one of them took over the ship and just made a huge mistake on the jetty. Then again, it’s often difficult to convince an intoxicated person not to drive.
