    About the death of Kirsty McColl tonight on BBC4 . Some big shot in the Mexican version of Tesco was almost certainly responsible for her death being either at the wheel or in control of the boat that killed her and has managed to avoid being subpoenaed let alone charged .

    The really sad thing about the programme was the effect on her mum her sons and her partner - apparently when she died she was happier than she had been for years .

    I didn't see the documentary by I read a Guardian article which included an interview with her mother . Sounds like an employee took the wrap for driving the speedboat even though it was more likely to have been a family member or the owner himself responsible . The employee got something like a £1500 fine and 3 month jail sentence ,
    There's a website run by her mother which tracks their legal progress in disputing the verdict
