Dave Matthews Band Chicago River Incident

In this investigative documentary, we revisit one of history's most unbelievable events...
on August 8th 2004, a tour bus going over the Chicago River dumped 800 gallons of septic waste off a bridge, tragically pummeling 109 passengers of an architectural tour boat that happened to be passing under the bridge.
This fiasco resulted in a multitude of hospitalizations and subsequent lawsuits, culminating in hefty fines and other criminal penalties for the bus driver who pulled the trigger and dumped crap on everyone. Or so the story goes...
Although Dave Matthews' driver Stefan Wohl plead guilty to the charge, he still claims his innocence...
We had no intention of discovering alternate possibilities when we decided to document this incident, but through our research we are left with many questions:
Is the bus driver who took the charges guilty, or is he just the fall guy?
Did he lie for money, or to protect a vulnerable friend?
Can someone accused of such a gross crime ever recover their reputation?

i like how there is no music from dave matthews in this documentary. i'm not ribbing, this is the best indie work ik of rn

It’s a choral performance of “Numb” by Linkin Park

[@sidvicious332]

I'm shocked they didn't check to see who had the empty tank. Would have been an open/shut case.

[@LiamRproductions]

By they time they got to Stefan, he could have emptied the tank as part of normal procedure. It took them a little while to narrow it down to him.

[@PlagueRavenRX]

My neighbor once got fucking hammered and sat in his car blaring DMB at three in the morning with all four doors open. That incident already made me hate DMB. I had no idea this happened until now. I have even less reason to listen to their music now.

[@sidvicious332]

Thats weird. I feel bad for you. Hope you find love dude. Get better. Life doesn't have to be sad. Good luck!

[@jasonjkruger]

I think what the driver is saying is that all of Dave's other drivers were either drunk or would test positive for drugs. He wouldn't. The snoop thing was an after thought when discussing other buses in town.

[@thearkedcrown]

Yeah I think that's what he's saying too but I think his story is completely full of shit no pun intended. Nobody would take the fall and have this on their record as a career driver. None of it makes sense.
