The man convicted in a 2022 boat crash on the Fox River is appealing. Jason Lindemann was convicted in June of 2024 of recklessly endangering safety and multiple counts of failure to render aid after running into the back of a paddleboat on the Fox River, injuring over a dozen people and doing significant damage. Fox 11 Green Bay reports his lawyer filed an appeal Tuesday, claiming that the judge unfairly biased the jury and that what Lindemann did wasn’t “reckless”. He claims Lindemann simply did what “every boater does” when seeing open water, and drove fast. He also said the judge never defined what “careless” meant in jury instructions. Prosecutors will have a month to respond to the filing.
