There can now be no argument against the fact that the Farley Mowat, a ship operated by Sea Shepherd, was NOT in international waters.
The ship’s Captain Alexander Cornelissen and his first officer, Peter Hammarstedt, have been FOUND GUILTY and CONVICTED of the crimes they were accused of.
They willfully endangered lived by ignoring orders from the Canadian Coast Guard, who were forced to intercept the Farley Mowat on several occasions because they refused to keep a safe distance from the sealers.
They willfully harassed sealers and actually filmed themselves doing it. Why ? Because they wanted to play the hero !
