Here 's a pretty depressing story that 's hitting the news. A Princess Cruise Captain failed to go to the assistance of a fishing vessel in distress in the Pacific Ocean. The boat was left drifting and 2 of the three occupants died...

Unbelievable... Not sure why there 's an internal and not an external (criminal) action going on.
