  1.  @calvinfisher5886  I think he is referring to the specific judge who let him out on bail After being arrested for this particular triple homicide.

  2. I think they set his bail way too low, for starters.

  3.  @chrisspowell8116  I agree, it's unacceptable. Life in prison for drug possession, but this guy was walking free with his record. But that does not prove some grand "white privilege" conspiracy. It just shows the justice system is broken.

  4. It looked like a normal autorotation at first, then something happened and it just fell the rest of the way.

  5.  Roy Rogers  that was my point. The way I misunderstood it was that he Had been released.

  10. Downdraft? not likely.

  11.  @robertotamesis1783  this was likely some sort of engine or mechanical failure. Downdraft accidents are not a thing along the shores. Cite an NTSB report of a single accident caused by such downdrafts.

  12. helicopter tours and such fly along the coast, probably thought nothing of it. If an engine failure, it was probably descending quietly. and people aren't generally looking up. Helicopters go from engine failure to being back on earth in mere seconds (rarely more than 30sec). Easy for beach goers to miss. Not enough time to react. Ever try running in water?

  13. helicopter pilots watch helicopter videos, who knew. Also, these videos serve as great training material for us CFIs.
