BP Oil Spill Attorney: Government Says 840,000 to 1.68 Million Gallons of Oil Released Each Day

Bahe Cook Cantley & Jones attorney Larry Jones, who is co-lead counsel on a class action against BP regarding the oil spill, just learned of a new government report that estimates that 840,000 to 1.6 million of gallons of oil have been leaking EVERY day --before the riser was cut. Now, after BP cut the riser, substantially more oil is being spilled into the Gulf.

Jones says, "This is proof positive that BP lied about the amount of oil spilling into the Gulf from the very beginning. The cover-up is usually worse than the crime. In this case, the crime itself is so egregious that it is unconscionable that BP would try to cover this up. I look forward to holding them accountable in Court."

Kentucky Water Skier Killed by Boat at Williamstown Lake in Grant County, Kentucky

A water skier was killed in a Grant County, Kentucky lake on Friday after he was hit by another boat. The incident happened on Williamstown Lake, when the skier fell off of his skis and was hit by the boat before his friends could return to pick him up.

Bahe Cook Cantley & Jones wrongful death attorney Larry Jones says, "Boaters have a heightened duty to scan the water and maintain a careful lookout for skiers and swimmers who are in the water. Many times speed and alcohol combine to make boaters not as careful as they should be. Unfortunately, the result is death and serious injury."

Summer Is Here: Yearly Reminder About Avoiding Boating Accidents

With summer in full-swing, many Kentucky boaters are heading out to one of our many lakes and rivers. However with the increase in boat traffic, recreational boating can result boating accidents causing severe personal injury or even death. Following the rules and regulations of the open waters helps to ensure that boating is an enjoyable and safe activity for all.

Before leaving the dock, boaters should always check their safety equipment to ensure that it is in proper working order. The United States Coast Guard requires that each boat have the following:

- Life jackets
- Registration and numbering
- Navigation lights
- Ventilation
- Fire extinguishers
- Distress signals
- Battery cover and connections

While out on the water, boaters should be aware of proper boating etiquette. Yielding to another boat towing an individual behind it helps to ensure the safety of the individual being towed so that he or she will not be run over by another boat. When towing an individual, designate a person to supervise the individual. Always slow down when approaching congested areas and anchorages. Boaters are responsible for their own wakes and the damage it may cause.

One of the most effective ways to prevent boating accidents is to avoid alcohol, as this single factor contributes to about one-third of all boating accidents. Kentucky law prohibits drinking in all Kentucky public waterways and prohibits Operating Under the Influence. In Kentucky, operating a boat with Blood Alcohol Content of .08% is considered boating under the influence. By following the law and boating etiquette, Kentucky boaters can safely enjoy our waters this summer.
