The skipper of a rented motorboat involved in a crash off the Amalfi Coast that killed a U.S. tourist is being investigated for suspected manslaughter and causing a shipwreck. Blood samples were taken from the skipper to determine alcohol and drug levels, but the results are inconclusive. The victim's husband and the skipper were injured in the accident, and the couple's two young children are now in the care of their grandfather. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities have questioned the skipper, the captain of the sailboat, and the passengers.
