Father Charged With Abuse For Tossing Son Off Boat

The article was about 35 year old Solan Steven Briles from CA, who was charged with child abuse for thrwoing his 7 year old son overboard on a Harbor Cruise. He was also said to have been drunk and got a misdemeanor for resisting an officer.
I thought the story was just messed up, what kind of father throws his own son overboard. I am just glad that the kid didn't get hurt, and hope that the Orange County District rules him guilty.
I think the story could fit the criterias of human interest, or unusuality. Because it's an emotional story, along with something out of the ordinary.
