There’s a picture of one of the so-called submarines from a previous bust here.

Another PC writer for Fox News. There was nothing “apparent” about this being a narco-smuggling sub considering the shitload of coke it was carrying illegally.
You can use the term “apparent” re the crew until they are convicted, but let’s stop this media PC crappy misuse of the word “apparent”.
Re suspects you can legally use “reported/reportedly”, “suspected”, “potential”, “caught at the scene, in the act, etc”., and sometimes “identified”. APPARENT doesn’t cut it in the real world of journalism. I spent 50 years avoiding the word “apparent”.
