MIAMI (WSVN) - Nearly a year after a boat crash in Biscayne Bay took the life of three girls from a sailing camp, a tugboat captain involved in the wreck is headed back to court and is expected to change his plea.

Yusiel Lopez Insua’s court appearance on Tuesday morning happens a week before the one-year-anniversary of the crash involving a tugboat and a sailboat off the coast of Hibiscus Island.

Lopez Insua, 46, was charged with seaman’s manslaughter back in March. In April, he pleaded not guilty.

“It’s a tragedy,” said Lopez Insua’s attorney as his client walked out on bond.
