Sea Shepherd’s wily captain Paul Watson was arrested at the Frankfurt airport yesterday.
Watson, the founder of the marine activist group, was arrested on a Costa Rican warrant dating back to a 2002 incident in their waters. A new Coasta Rican prosecutor has charged Watson with attempted murder for allegedly slamming a shark-poaching vessel more than a decade ago.
Online support for Captain Watson is pouring in, and there is even an online petition for his release.
