A conspiracy of fishermen?
"Asked to help the government stop poachers from destroying a tropical island rich in marine life, the leader of a California conservation group is instead being investigated for attempted murder and malicious damage... The string of criminal charges is aimed at Paul Watson, who is also the captain of the group's flagship, the Farley Mowat. His legal problems began the day he sailed into this steamy port town of 100,000 inhabitants. The conservationist is being investigated for ramming a Costa Rican fishing boat and threatening its crew after allegedly catching them hunting sharks illegally."
