With new evidence, that does bring light on the subject. He could have been responsible if she was unconscious when she hit the water. We have new techniques of understanding this information. What do you think?

shareBigger question... is Walken involved in any way?
sharethere may have been bruises, from undetermined causes, but; he didn't kill her. she fell off the boat and drowned. if there was any evidence of anything- there would have been an arrest. I believe this boat captain is a hack raking up a buck. walken didn't know RJ well enough to lie for him- and vica versa. the whole idea is stupid.
shareI'm not sure if Wagner killed her, maybe, but hopefully this case will be finally solved.
sharehe may have thought she got ashore ok; and told the boat captain to forget it. they were all drunk. I can't see anything more.
shareAnything is possible, whether accidentally or intentionally. Proof of cause is one thing but proof of whether that cause was intentional is quite another.
shareevery one in Hollywood knows that RJ was so in love with her; he couldn't see his hand in front of his face. I truly believe he would never have harmed her in any way, and would have laid down his own life to save her if he thought she was drowning out there. cmon folks.
shareIT could also be why he killed her, albeit unintentionally or passionately.
It's a VERY tough case for prosecutors to prove. If the DA's office and the police want to bring charges against Robert Wagner for murder or manslaughter, they better cross their Ts and dot their Is, and they BETTER have the proofs. They have to make sure this is thoroughly investigated before they can bring charges against Wagner. If the DA's office can't convict OJ Simpson or Robert Blake, they sure as hell can't convict Robert Wagner unless they have foolproof, airtight evidence tying Wagner as the one responsible for the murder or manslaughter.
At best right now, it's probably going to be manslaughter charges against Wagner, and unless new evidence comes through, the DA's office will have a heck of a time convincing a jury or even a judge to convict Wagner.
Theoretically, the DA's office could prosecute Robert Wagner based on the Captain's words alone, but the Captain has absolutely zero credibility and the judge will dismiss the case for wasting everybody's times.
This is an interesting one to watch to see what happens.
