I will be checking under Sink and bed now

[mike45orlando]

Several million cruise passengers a year, I would put their record up against any hotel chain or theme park in protecting the customer from deviants.

Supposed there was dust under the bed and he started sneezing. "Did you hear something? 😷

Multiple thoughts: 

 

- I'm with those who question how a person could get under the bed. 

- Even if he did, what kind of chance was he taking?  It's possible the guests would come in and take a long nap, trapping him for hours.  And what if an angry father or husband caught him?  

- While this guy is a serious weirdo and creep and deserves what's coming to him -- firing, for starters, I'm not getting worked up over it.  He's one idiot; let's not make assumptions about the other crew members.  

If it’s anything like horror movies, there would be a trap door underneath the bed he could use to enter and escape from.

Just add this to your thoughts. Your at the Pool with your kids. They happen to need something from the room. You send them without another thought about it.  No parent should have to worry about a person hiding in there room much less a cruise line employee. its just sad.

 

Yes its just another thing to worry about. If it happens once it can happen again.I am serious about checking under the bed and sink each time we enter the cabin.We will be boarding in two weeks. 

 

Many from some other threads who just automatically think that kids ( young kids ) are SOOOO safe on a ship and that nothing could ever happen to them , therefore they should have total "Big Kid" freedom , need to read stories like this and take note .

Will they hide under my bed twice, if I’m in a junior suite or higher? 🤷‍♂️

[Thisguylikestocruise]

Noticed on my recent cruise there’s a lot of parents that let kids roam around unsupervised. They need to realize it’s not a daycare where everyone gets background checks, there’s thousands of strangers onboard. Parents normally wouldn’t let small children walk alone in a city, so why do they trust a cruise ship so much.

Under the bed? 
 

 

The stateroom attendant was hiding under the bed with his cell phone.  He also video recorded a 10 yo girl undressing and getting into the shower, including nude women in the bathroom.Hidden cameras in stateroom bathrooms of guests he liked, preferably 16 yo girls. Child pornography found in his electronic devices.

I feel confident that this will not reoccur as I highly doubt if the cruise line will sit back with this or permit it to continue, and likely has already checked not only the many ships staterooms but has vetted any involved crew.  You really don't think this is - or ever was - a widespread ongoing issue at this point, do you?  And with the attention that has been focused on it, that the cruise line would continue to allow it to happen?  

It was RCI who turned him into the police and immediately terminated him.  RCI stated they have zero tolerance and are fully cooperating with the authorities. They discovered this during an inspection.

Although it’s hard to imagine anyone small enough to fit under the bed, the crew member is from the Philippines, and most Filipinos are of small stature.  Since most of the information was provided by the person being charged, he could have embellished his statements “to brag”, thinking it makes him look smart. Remember, we’re dealing with a sick twisted mind.

As compensation for the crew related crime on board, Royal Caribbean promises to deliver better food quality, go back to twice a day cabin cleaning and also promise to sell cruises for more reasonable fares

I mean what company is going to say "We tolerate our employees videoing people changing"?? Also the passenger discovered it not the employees.

It isn't only crew. This happened last year on my Harmony cruise https://apnews.com/article/restroom-camera-cruise-ship-9bc176b06e00e59c270416d7ba3250ee  There's all kinds of weirdos out there

Keeping their liability down - if they didn't report him instantly, their possible civil damages could have been epic..  Once the police have all the victims identified, RCCL will be paying out the nose anyway to each of the victim's families to avoid the inevitable civil suit.  This one, b/c RCCL is the actual employer and it happened on their watch, will be pricey.

Apparently a passenger discovered the camera under her sink and reported it. It was not an inspection

And of course they are fully cooperating with authorities. There is no way to hide this one under the bed.😉

...and yes, we have found both microphones and hidden cameras (in rental housing). 

Note to self, people are weird…

 

What did you do when said cameras etc were discovered?

That would have had to be one tiny person! And how would he see the shower even IF he could get under there. It's not like a typical bed where you could lay there and look out🤣🤦‍♀️

 

I'm guessing he was hiding under the bed in hopes of hearing some bouncy-bouncy-squeaky-squeaky above him. 🤪

Stayed in the house, called the manager and then the police to make a report.

It’s not just individuals. I worked for a company that had cameras and microphones in the break room to monitor conversations.

Those beds are so low he'd have been participating cause he'd be getting smacked in the head a whole bunch😆

[Thisguylikestocruise]

He’ll have plenty of time to hide under beds in prison

Hence my earlier comment about using the bed as a trampoline for awhile and then taking him to medical when I was finished with "my work-out".
