“It didn’t have a sign” I’m pretty sure that’s where common sense is suppose to kick in.

Sounds like just a freak accident. He has to live with that everyday.

we don't need a damn sign for every freaking thing that is just common sense.

I can't imagine the coroner having to go see what an 11th story drop does to a baby

"There was no sign or warning about not sitting on the railing." It's called common sense. The railing is the warning. That's what railings are for. To prevent people from going where they are not supposed to go and falling off edges and out of windows.

I understand that the family is in pain and the grandfather must be beating himself over this but it was clearly his fault.

I think he actually knew that the window was open. Just like many parents would throw their toddlers up in the air, sit them on the balconies etc. He just didn't count on him dropping her. He probably thought he could hold her up and bring her back inside safely. That's what I think happened.

Been on 10 cruises. Its very easy to tell the window is open. Just the sheer volume of wind/sound/visual coming through is undeniable.

Idiot yes , murderer no. As a mother & grandmother Id have NEVER , EVER sat them on a railing or even near it. Maybe I see danger all over.

My husband was on a jury where a family had a twin bed shoved up next to a bedroom wall in an apartment under the 2nd story window. They had kids jumping on the bed and one fell out the open window that had a lightweight aluminum screen on it and the child fell to the ground and was killed. The family sued the apartment owner and they claimed that the screens should have prevented the fall. The jury and my husband felt bad for the family but they determined that screens are designed to keep bugs out not children in. The family should have not placed the bed next to the window and shouldn’t let the kids jump on the bed. People have to protect their own kids, it’s the job of the parents.

Common sense you don’t put a baby on a railing on a cruise ship.

I can’t believe this family actually tried to sue Royal Caribbean after this man’s negligence. In the security footage, you can see him sticking his head out the window before he stupidly put his granddaughter on the rail. Obviously, he knew the window was open. But they tried to act like he thought the window was closed, which was a lie. Absolutely horrible this little girl had to fall to her death because of this man’s lack of common sense.
