William Holbert (Wild Bill)

The swells are about 15 feet.

And so we tied up together, but when we tie up together, we put little bumpers in between the boats.

But in this case, when the boat, when there's so much swells, you have to give a little leeway with the rope.

If you don't, the boats will capsize.

So you have to give them a little leeway and they bump together.

So when we were doing the count, the Jamaicans are counting the people as they jump across.

The beautiful little girl jumped up.

There was like maybe 30 passengers left.

And maybe she was like number, let's say number 50 going across.

And when she jumped up on the gunwheel of the boat, she slipped.

And one of her feet fell in between the boats and they closed on it and it broke her leg.

But when I say it broke her leg, I mean it broke it so damn bad that the bones were sticking out.

of the skin below the knee.

And she's screaming bloody murder, and the Jamaicans just pull her up into the boat, blood everywhere, you know, and I was like, oh my God.

So we finished the count, and I didn't really know what to do, so we left, and left her with the Jamaicans.

And I was trolling, or I was trolling the boat around, turning the boat around, trolling it around, and I heard a gunshot.

Then I looked over, and then I saw them throw her into the water.

So they shot her, killed her, and threw her in the water because there's no doctor.

I mean, to be perfectly honest with you, that wound would have been fatal for her anyway.

And in a way, they saved her a long period of time because there's no doctor on the open.
