Pirate Attacks - - Concerns by a California Jones Act Attorney

According to Fox News pirates have attacked more than 100 ships off the Somali coast over the last year, reaping an estimated $1 million in ransom for each successful pirate hijacking, according to analysts and country experts.

At this time, another Italian-owned vessel remains in the hands of pirates. The Italian-flagged tugboat Buccaneer was seized off Somalia on April 11, 2009 with 16 crew members aboard.

After 100 attacks in the last year alone it is difficult to argue that anyone is surprised by the fact that ships are being attacked by pirates.
