Charter boat owners admit student's manslaughter

The father and son operators of a Cape Cod charter boat have admitted to the manslaughter of an Irish student who fell through a broken railing on their craft and drowned.

Joseph Jay Shore, aged 64, and his son, Cord Mitchell Shore, aged 40, were charged with the death of Catherine Kinsella, aged 20, of Dublin, in July 2001 when they appeared in a Boston court yesterday.
