SOUTH BEND, Indiana - The Indiana parents of a toddler who fell to her death out of an open cruise ship window in Puerto Rico filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against Royal Caribbean Cruises, accusing the company of negligence by allowing the window to be opened.
Chloe Wiegand fell to her death in July after her grandfather lifted her to the window on Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas ship while the vessel docked."We should be celebrating with presents and a birthday cake, but instead we are talking about her death," Chloe's mother, Kim Wiegand of Granger, Indiana, told reporters at a news conference in nearby South Bend.Chloe's grandfather, Salvatore Anello, has been charged in Puerto Rico with negligent homicide.
He insists he is colourblind and did not know the 11th floor window in the children's play area was open.The lawsuit says the company violated industry standards by failing to provide reasonably safe windows in an area where children play on the ship.It seeks an unspecified financial award."We all sit here broken," Anello said on Wednesday.Anello is due in a Puerto Rico court on Dec 17.
Funny how in theses situations everybody gets arrested or sued except the lawyers who make it lucrative for lawyers of all parties to benefit from prolonged contention
