Bottom of the Hudson is the brainchild is singer/songwriter/guitarist Eli Simon, who released the debut album, The Omaha Record, in 2003. Simon played all the instruments on the album, and had a hand in mixing it. The band's latest release, the 6-song EP Holiday Machine, saw the addition of Justin Stile on bass, Chris Coella on drums and Matt Mitchell on guitar.

The band recently suffered major tragedy when they were involved in a serious van wreck on Sunday July 29th 2007, while returning home after the final date of a short East Coast tour to promote their new album. While on I-40 near Clinton, NC, a tire blew out sending their van out of control and flipping it multiple times. Bassist Trevor Butler was killed in the accident and drummer Greg Lytle was hospitalised after fracturing his skull. The other members of the band, Eli Simon, Michael Prince and William Chesterton Chambers, suffered minor injuries and were released from hospital.

Something really strange about this case, and it has nothing to do with kayaking in my opinion. The drain plug doesn't make that much difference, come on guys, think about it, plenty of people forget the drain plug, I certainly have, makes almost no difference, it's on top FFS, and they certainly don't sink in under 10 minutes under normal use ..... I have no idea what context the Cops offered that in, maybe while being held underwater?

Broken paddles happen occasionally, again, not a big drama, and they are wide kayaks, so I don't really believe that either. Some actually prefer a single paddle, as I am sure you have all seen.

When I was watching this I was mighty confused surrounding the kayak, didn't make sense, then something else struck me that does make sense, and is a better fit ...

Someone else was on the island, and killed him on her behalf. That would explain her "euphoria" and cool demeanor afterwards, they couldn't get her to talk because not only did she not do it, she may not have even seen it, just playing her role after the matter. So body gets thrown into the water, hence why it was found still there close by, and of course the kayak was taken out and sunk intentionally, all to get rid of him, and to get the insurance money.

So I opine that they got the right person, but with the wrong scenario, and there may be a third, even forth person/s involved.

Let me get this straight :
1. She is about to be thrown out of the apartment by her FIANCE (like, what? A good way to start a marriage, for sure).
2. She doesn't want to be bar tending any more.
3. Living off the guy's money is lovely, she can do yoga, kayaking and volunteer.
4. She has a plan, she knows about the insurance.
5. She invites / challenges the guy to go kayaking in poor weather by wearing something sexy, possibly promising sex on that island?
6. She unscrews the plug OR knowingly omits putting it back in where it should be for safety reasons.
7. Takes safety ring off the paddle.
8. 'Forgets' to take her life vest, knowing that Vince would give up his.
9. Knows Vince isn't very good at paddling / isn't fit enough for these choppy waters.
10. Goes out with him, sees him drown, waits to make sure he doesn't resurface.
11. Calls 911
12. Doesn't have brains to act along a bit longer, forgets to act distressed and upset at his death.
13. Tells cops about the plug HERSELF????!!

In my opinion, it was premeditated, as she must have been quite sure about the missing plug having this dangerous effect, because her own plug was in place in her own kayak. She didn't flip over, but Vince did. Vince couldn't paddle either (paddle brojen), no life jacket. He dies.

Very clever murder, worthy of Agatha Christie.

قناة لنشر الخير

Summary of the video in case you don’t want to watch the whole thing:
- She called 911 to get help for her fiancée who was drowning. Investigators said she waited few minutes before she called 911.
-she confessed to his murder to one of the detectives on the island
-she hired a good team of lawyers who cost her
$542 000 which was her fiancée’s life insurance money she signed off to her lawyers.
-she only gets 32 months in jail
-she gets away with murder

So she kills him, she gets life insurance money, she uses that life insurance money to hire good lawyers to get her out of this mess and she walks free after 32 months. Money money money 💰 show a lawyer money and he does everything he can to get you out,

Fraukie

@Snoglydox
Exactly.
If it was like the cop said (I have no reason not to believe him) that was even first degree murder.. she made choices and hat lots of opportunities to remember that killing someone is WRONG.
What she did is not like tempering with the brakes on a car, if you do that, the one who drives the car COULD get hurt or killed, if she took out the plug AND manipulated his paddle he wasn't "endangered" of getting harmed, he didn't stand a chance and she KNEW that.

But the reality is also that it would have been near to impossible to PROOF that she did those thing.
Yes, they found his kayak without a plug and the ring missing on his paddle.
But they also found him without a life jacket so even for this lawyer it would have been way to easy to get to the jury and make them think twice if this is a case where it is "proven beyond a reasonable doubt that SHE did these things to kill him or that he just made those mistakes himself.

I also don't think that it would have been easy to convince the jury that money was her motive..
I don't see a person that cares that muh about money.
I see a girl that is unbelievable immature, self centered and not at all able to grasp that she can't just do stuff like that to "feel free".

I don't know her, so I am not entitled to claim any insight..
But if she has a new partner anytime I would advise that person to sleep with open eyes, always lock doors carefully, never drive a car without checking brakes and stuff..

When I see how she acts and talks I get the impression that she did not understand at all that she just murdered an innocent person and seemingly without a real motive...
That concerns me way more as any gold digger would and makes me thing that she is incredible dangerous.

@Scorch428 Thought the same, going out in that weather, not checking the kayak and not wearing lifewest.

There's no way a kayak will sink with the drain unplugged. I'm an avid kayaker and have paddled countless hours with the above deck hole unplugged. Think about it, you're sitting in the biggest hole of all when kayaking. A paddle split in half isn't a death sentence either. I don't know how he drowned but it wasn't the equipment. It's also against the law to kayak without a life jacket. She's definitely responsible somehow but I don't believe the cops theory and their so called test they performed.

@Pippy Pop's Self HarmMonica I feel you brother, it's not even a question, she killed him, she clearly wanted out. She is a narcissistic person. It was easier for her to kill him than to have broken up with him. There are many cases like this.
There was a case where a woman was with a man but couldn't stand him. Rather than ending it, she killed him.
everyone defending her is a fool. There are always fools in cases like these. We call them suckers. Think jodi arias, Anthony casie. Defense lawyers use the easiest roots, attack the victims, cops. Defense lawyers are ruthless.

Gotta love how she confessed multiple times, had proof the things she mentioned on the island were missing from the kayak and then on top of that had multiple tests to prove that the kayak would sink in those conditions. With all that on the table the lawyer still tried to act like it wasn't happening? Really guy? His best defense was " no, you're lying" no real proof to say anything against their proof. On top of all of that she was acting in a manner you would see a sociopath act. The woman was clearly not right in the head, and by the way " not openly grieving" doesn't mean acting happy, I know many people who don't openly grieve and none of them, not one have ever acted like that even when it's smaller things that you would still grieve, so no, she was not keeping her grieving quiet, she was quite clearly very happy and even admitted she was happy.

I personally know about the tiny plug.

A few years ago, I was driving a jet ski. My wife and mother-in- law were sitting behind. After a few minutes I couldn’t control the jet ski at all. So much that we flipped over, all three of us floating on the water.

Once we were back on land, my friend noticed that the plug wasn’t all the way in, it was loose just enough for water to get in, and fast, causing the jet ski to be uncontrollable, causing us to flip because of the weight of the water leaking in and our body weight.

Having experienced that I can see how removing the plug can be used to kill someone.

This is one of those things were different reporting reports it differently , always for this particular death. I'm one of the ones that don't think that she actually killed him and I think it was a tragic accident. I totally think the police helped her do a false confession. Which is why people should never say anything even when they're trying to be helpful to police and to get an attorney because I've had attorneys tell me( just didn't conversation) that police even if you're a witness ,never talk to them without an attorney present because they can turn anything into being a charge against you to get what they want. Including having you be a witness when you might have not seen something but they want you to say what they want you to say. One attorney said that the minute you say anything, that is the police way to have a line of questioning to you including DAs to question you. So don't say a thing without an attorney including your name, just hand over your ID. I was fascinated by the convos and was like how can a charge be brought against a witness?? They said the charges don't have to stick so they can charge for anything or threaten to , it's how they get people to be compliant. They're always amazed when people think they are helping and talking without an attorney.

Kayaking on the Hudson without a life vest in frigid waters with 3ft swells. Drain plug was the size of a 2 liter Pepsi bottle and located on top just as the cockpit is. Only the cockpit is about 3 ft wide. . Way more of a chance of water to enter in there. The paddle could not save you in a pool let alone in the Hudson, Sadly,This guy died under is own doings. After 11 hrs in a room being asked all of your personal information, Overzealous detectives got a "confession" under the pretense that the drain plug was on the bottom. They were absolutely full of shit, Ego prevented back peddle and had no case which is why the DA plea agreement was reached. Very sad that this man passed but it was in no way murder. From the time it happened, before a body was found, the public had her pinned as guilty. Why would she go for a trial by jury at that point. She plead to get out of the nightmare the detectives further put her in after losing her fiance in a tragic accident on the river. Of course his mother needs to blame someone after detectives convinced her he was murdered.

Doing cartwheels when you supposedly watched your finance die and then playing hopscotch at the police station shows she's a few cents short of a dollar... but the way she was acting on the Island was very suspect... what was she actually hiding?

Thats not very far fetched considering she spent only 32 months in prison after confessing to premeditaded murder. If that trial had been fair she woud have got life imprisonment.

Lawyers do their work very professionally but it sounds like he found every loophole under the sun to get her off with murder. I've served on a jurey and even after the the second day it's surprising how what you think is foolproof evidence is soon watered down to mean very little to support a conviction .

I've spent a lot of time in Ukraine and I would agree that overall the women seem cold and uncaring. There are kind, warm women there but overall the majority seem cold. It's just very different from US culture where women are taught to always smile and put everyone's happiness above their own. Both cultures have drawbacks.

Tip to Police: Wear a wire when you go around spouses, family members , bosses etc, that are connected to people that have been kidnapped or murdered..

Justus Sneary

They didn’t know he had been a victim of foul play.

Some women from these countries are so cold and calculating, it’s all about them and when it doesn’t go their way these women just kill them. I’m this case, she just didn’t give a s*** about him and wanted part of his insurance. What I don’t understand is when the authorities have a full confession and the guilty party is not contesting their confession, why do they have so much trouble having to prove the case? It is outrageous for Vince’s family to know that Vince’s life was worth so little. And of course she did it for the money, it was always about the money. The fact that it will end up paying that shark of a lawyer is another story. And she did murder him, make no mistake, and she did get away with murder.

Lesson to learn is: do not let anyone know you have life insurance and do not let anyone know they are the beneficiary. So many cases about people die because of this. Money can help but also can harm.

"She won't see a dime of that money" says the defense attorney trying to hide his glee. He probably thinks punishment is meted out, as a side effect he made a few bucks. And in Latvia people don't cry :-) :-) In any case, Kayaking the Hudson in bad weather and darkness without a life vest is suicidal. Losing the paddle, or even losing the kayak is part of the risk calculus, and the well known mitigation strategy is to carry safety equipment. If he had taken minimal water safety precautions, he will be alive now. As much as I abhor the cart wheels, I feel pinning the murder on this girl is a bit of a stretch. The part about the paddle ring doesn't make any sense to me either - before you get into the water check the damn equipment!

I don’t believe that little hole in the kayak would’ve been enough to cause that thing to sink so fast. He wasn’t wearing a life jacket, kayaks can be damaged if they hit a rock in rough waters, which the waters were that day with 3 ft waves.

@George Lundy Read comments above. They used sketchy tactics to make her say "I killed him". Yes, she wanted to be free from him and did couple minor sabotages, but that was not nearly enough to kill him - read the comment above from actual kayakers.

They got her only because she was confused by her own conflicting emotions.

She was absolutely railroaded during the interrogation. Never ever talk to detectives without a lawyer present. Watch the confession tapes on Netflix. This story is on it. She was played by the detective. She committed no crime whatsoever.

Reactions to abuse, can go 2 ways. if it snaps you, you will pay it back. or you absorb, for later.
Justice is not only blind, but dumb as dirt. she already paid for a ticket to off Vince.
