Rare dronnygirl Posted August 20, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Some very interesting theories on the Norwegian forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitalsign Posted August 20, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Yes there are and no one seems to think she could have fallen overboard without climbing the railings or jumping - whether she'll tell the truth about what happened we may never know - unless the CTV which is rumoured to have filmed it is made public And who will pay for the search and rescue? and all the people who missed their flights home from Venice? In the latter instance the insurance companies I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeeCountyMan Posted August 23, 2018 #12 Share Posted August 23, 2018 One report said her top item of clothing was found on the deck near where she went overboard. If true, that would most likely explain why there are images of her being hauled out of the water wearing only a bra or bikini top above the shorts.

davecttr Posted August 24, 2018 #15 Share Posted August 24, 2018 It is reported that she had been arguing with her boyfriend and was also drunk. Apparently she did jump! All those suffering financial loss will get no compensation unless their insurance company pay. no point in suing her for the money, she hasn't any apart from what the newspaper will pay for the story. NCL will suffer significant financial loss, reports say hundreds of thousands of dollars They will ban her form the cruise line, that's about it.

WeeCountyMan Posted August 25, 2018 #21 Share Posted August 25, 2018 They will ban her form the cruise line, that's about it. Is there no criminal offence committed ? Seems wrong that somebody can cause so much disruption that impacts on so many others without having to answer for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecttr Posted August 25, 2018 #22 Share Posted August 25, 2018 No criminal offence. they could charge her for expenses incurred while aboard the ship but of course as soon as she fell/jumped she was not on the ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeeCountyMan Posted August 25, 2018 #24 Share Posted August 25, 2018 No criminal offence. they could charge her for expenses incurred while aboard the ship but of course as soon as she fell/jumped she was not on the ship! I came across this on Daily Mail online. According to the Cruise Lines International Association, man overboard cases are not common - but there are no official statistics on the annual number. Its report said last year: 'Without exception, when investigations of MOB incidents are successfully concluded it is found that they were the result of an intentional or reckless act'. In which case maybe it's time to make it an offence ? Having said that, it is probably easier to say than implement due to overlapping legal jurisdictions. UK citizen on a US vessel in Croatian waters for starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitalsign Posted August 25, 2018 #25 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I think the problem with legislation is that jumpers/fallers rarely survive She should be forced to have psychiatric help if she jumped and banned from all cruise lines if she fell fooling around whilst under the influence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
