AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) fined up to $5,000. Under Title 46 of the United States Code, the person in charge of a documented vessel who fails to report a complaint of a sexual offense may be fined up to $5,000. This is specified in 46 U.S.C. § 10104, which requires the person in charge to report any complaint of a sexual offense to the appropriate authorities. The other options (B and C) are incorrect, as they do not reflect the specific penalty outlined in the relevant statute.
