After nine days on trial in Hall County Superior Court in Gainesville, Paul J. Bennett still has lingering legal issues — he faces four misdemeanor charges brought by the state in a prior, separate incident. Bennett was acquitted on eight felony homicide by vessel charges and convicted on four misdemeanor counts stemming from the investigation of a June 18, 2012, boating accident that killed two Buford boys, Jake Prince, 9, and Griffin Prince, 13. Bennett was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in jail on Nov. 14 for boating under the influence, failure to render aid and two counts of reckless boating.
