Bayesian captain 'exhausted' says lawyer

Bayesian captain 'exhausted' says lawyer

Didn't reply due to fatigue, our need to frame defence - lawyer

Bayesian captain James Cutfield did not reply to prosecutor's question on last Monday's sinking near Palermo of British tech tycoon Mike Lynch's superyacht because he is exhausted and because his legal team have not had time to put a defensive case together against possible charges of negligent manslaughter in a disaster that killed Lynch, his daughter Hannah and five others, the Kiwi skipper's lawyer said after the fruitless questioning session Tuesday.
    "The commander exercised his right to remain silent for two basic reasons," said the 51-year-old expert sailor's attorney, Giovanni Rizzuti.
    "One is that he is exhausted. The second reason is that we were appointed yesterday and we need to get a series of data which we do not at present posses in order to set out a full, comprehensive and correct defensive line.
    Cutfield, 51, is under investigation by prosecutor Raffaele Cammarano on possible charges of culpable shipwreck and multiple negligent manslaughter.
