PROVIDENCE, RI – AUGUST 21: Nathan Carman ignores questions from the media upon his arrival at U.S. District Court for his federal civil trial in Providence, RI on Aug. 21, 2019. Nathan Carman took the stand Thursday in a closely watched federal lawsuit centering on the 2016 sinking of his boat and the mysterious loss of his mother at sea during that voyage. Carman, 25, of Vernon, Vt., took the stand just before 9:40 a.m. in federal court in Providence. On Wednesday, his detailed written account to insurers of his sunken vessel was admitted into evidence in the pitched dispute over his $85,000 claim for the loss of his boat. Carman told authorities he had been drifting in a life raft for a week when he was rescued about 115 miles off Marthas Vineyard by a passing freighter on Sept. 25, 2016. His mother, Linda, who was alone with him on the boat, is presumed dead. Carman is at the center of investigations into the deaths of his mother and his grandfather, who was shot in his Connecticut home in 2013. Carman hasnt been charged criminally in either case and has adamantly denied wrongdoing. (Photo by Nic Antaya for The Boston Globe via Getty Images)
