Family of a Woman Killed in a Boat Crash in Boston Harbor Is Suing for $15 Million in a Wrongful Death Lawsuit

The father of a Somerville woman killed in a boat crash in Boston Harbor is suing for $15 million in a wrongful death lawsuit that names two boat drivers — including one who is already facing criminal charges relating to her death.

Jeanica Julce, 27, died in the summer of 2021 when a boat, driven by Ryan Denver, collided with a navigation aid at 3 a.m. on a Saturday morning. Seven other passengers were rescued, but first responders were unable to find Julce. Her body was recovered around 10 a.m. that morning. 

Denver, of Boston, was indicted later that year by a Suffolk County grand jury on counts including manslaughter and multiple counts of assault and battery. He pleaded not guilty, and his jury trial is scheduled for 2025.
