We don't know the exact location, but it's at least 12 nautical miles out, 13.8 regular ones.

If Michael Phelps had a baby with Janet Evans, that prodigy is still likely fucked.

13.8 miles in a pool is doable, but 13.8 miles of open ocean are a whole different thing, and its going to be a lot more than 13.8 miles with the water moving you around. That's if they even knew which direction was land and managed to swim directly at it. Even a minor orientation error drastically increases the distance.

Even if they could cling to the wreckage, or survival float long enough, they'd be completely at the mercy of the currents. Lifejackets would improve these odds, but still would leave plenty of time to detain them. 

Even if you strain credulity hard enough to think that there's a minuscule chance the above might happen, it's still illegal to kill them.

Such an excuse would be ludicrous from a general who has never left the land, but Bradley is a SEAL.

And you're ignoring the fact that they are still trying to get their drugs to America. I would be willing to bet that the drugs sunk (because they would be dense as fuck) but assuming they somehow floated, these Super Swimmers are going to push many times their bodyweight in drugs to America.

Yep, I had that part in, but took it out for brevity and simplicity of argument. The odds of reaching land at all are minuscule, but zero odds of reaching the United States. 

Cocaine floats for a while before sinking, lots of photos and video of it. 

Fentanyl has a density of 1.087 vs. 1.101  for cocaine, so should theoretically float for a while before sinking as well. 

It's all academic though. In no case was anyone on that boat a further threat to reach America and our military could have detained them long before they had even the minuscule chance of reaching anywhere else, let alone the US.

Wish this was an open session but word will quickly leak what he says. I want to understand how drug operations were continuing after the videos we’ve seen of the boat becoming very inoperable.
