Family Of Missing Honeymooner Sues Royal Caribbean Cruise Line
Local6.com - Orlando,FL,USA June 29, 2006
The family of a Connecticut man who disappeared from his honeymoon cruise a year ago sued the ship's operator Thursday, accusing the Miami-based company of trying to cover up the incident. George Allen Smith IV, 26, of Greenwich, vanished July 5 from a Royal Caribbean ship in the Mediterranean between Greece and Turkey after an apparent late night of drinking. The FBI has been investigating, but no one has been charged and no body has been recovered. "The cruise line deliberately and intentionally portrayed the incident as an accident, and hampered a full-blown, appropriate investigation into the facts and circumstances of George A. Smith's death," the lawsuit states.
