Linda O'Leary found not guilty in connection to fatal Ontario boat crash

Linda O’Leary has been found not guilty in connection to a boat crash that killed two people in central Ontario two years ago.

O'Leary, the wife of celebrity businessman Kevin O'Leary, was found not guilty of one charge of careless operation of a vessel under the Canada Shipping Act.

The verdict was delivered this morning in a hearing in Parry Sound, Ont., that was also livestreamed.

Linda O'Leary was at the helm when the boat collided with another vessel on Aug. 24, 2019, on Lake Joseph, north of Toronto.

The couple and a family friend were returning to their cottage from a dinner party at another cottage when the incident took place.
