Michael Simpson, a 51-year-old man charged with attempted second-degree murder in connection with an alleged incident involving a teenage lobster diver, has denied all allegations.
In an interview with "Good Morning America" on Friday, Simpson stated, "It's all lies, it's simple. It's been a devastating few days. It's absolutely untrue," according to ABC News.
Simpson is a former member of a Florida boating safety task force. Further details about the specific allegations and the incident were not immediately available.
