前渔船船长排污向太平洋排放油污水罪名成立

2018-04-07来源:和谐英语

A former fishing boat captain is facing up to six years in prison for deliberately dumping oily slops into the Pacific Ocean.

A jury in Seattle convicted Randall Fox on Thursday for violating the federal Act to Prevent Pollution from Ships.

He also faces a $250,000 fine when he is sentenced.

A crewmember on his boat videotaped Fox dumping waste and turned the tape over to prosecutors.

The Justice Department says Fox's father was also convicted of a pollution- related crime last year.
