‘Deadliest Catch’ Captain To Serve Five Years In Prison
An Alaska fishing captain who led a crew on the program that became the “Deadliest Catch,” will serve five years in prison for a fatal crash. Clarence Helgevold Jr. originally was charged with manslaughter in January 2011 when his car crashed with a snowmobile driven by George Larion, who was thrown from the snowmobile and died. Under terms of an agreement, Helgevold pleaded guilty to reduced charges in May. He’ll serve 4 1/2 years for criminally negligent homicide and six months for driving under the influence. Helgevold was captain of the Arctic Dawn, the vessel featured in a 2004 three-part miniseries “America’s Deadliest Season,” a pilot for the “Deadliest Catch.”
