Grandfather charged with negligent homicide in death of 18-month-old granddaughter who fell from Royal Caribbean cruise ship.
The grandfather, who was with his 18-month-old granddaughter when she fatally fell from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship, has been arrested and charged with negligent homicide, the Puerto Rico Department of Justice announced.
Chloe Wiegand was traveling with her grandparents on the cruise ship on July 7, when Anello put her on a wood railing in front of a wall of glass windows. Chloe went to bang on one of the windows, according to family attorney Michael Winkleman, but it was open and she was quickly “gone.” "These criminal charges are pouring salt on the open wounds of this grieving family. Clearly, this was a tragic accident and the family’s singular goal remains for something like this to never happen again. Had the cruise lines simply followed proper safety guidelines for windows, this accident likely would never have happened." Winkleman said in an interview with ABC News."Really for them, this is really about Chloe.
"This was a tragic incident, and out of respect for the family’s privacy, we refer you to authorities for further comment," Royal Caribbean said in a statement Monday.
