A Caribbean Cruise From Hell

By KEVIN KOENINGER 

APRIL 16, 2013

 

\"\" MIAMI (CN) – Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines kept a woman under guard in her room for days after her daughter fell overboard and died, and wouldn\’t even let her go to the chapel to pray, the mother claims in court.
Vera Marion claims the cruise line didn\’t even bother to turn the ship around to look for her 21-year-old daughter until 2 hours after she fell overboard.
Marion sued Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines in Federal Court, on her own behalf and for her late daughter, A\’riel Marion.
Vera Marion won the cruise from her employer, as one of its top sales agents.
\”On the night of Sept. 16, 2012, only several hours into the voyage, twenty-one year-old A\’riel Marion somehow fell overboard,\” the complaint states.
