So far the only reference I could find regarding the parents not wanting to watch the CCTV video was from
The Sun:
Police in Puerto Rico have a copy of a video from the interior of the ship showing the fatal fall - and offered to show it to Chloe's parents but the couple were too distraught to view the distressing footage.
Instead they asked for a copy - but cops refused.
'CRITICAL EVIDENCE'
"One of the hold ups in our investigation is that Royal Caribbean have not provided us with CCTV footage of the incident which is the most critical piece of evidence," Winkleman explained.
"At this point they've outright refused to produce the video.
"We definitively know there is footage of the incident from the interior of the ship because the police in Puerto Rico wanted to show it to the family but not surprisingly the mom and dad were not willing or ready to watch it at that point.
"They asked for a copy of it but the police would not give it to them.
Cruise tot's family furious after firm 'refuses' to hand over CCTV of death fall
Anyone else have better luck? Now that criminal charges have been filed the grandfather's attorney will have access to the video with no problem. I wonder if the prosecution used it as evidence for the charge?
Looking for links was a sad task as so many articles had pictures of Chloe - such a beautiful, happy little gal. And it's clear to me that her grandfather adored her.
But... letting a toddler bang on glass/plexiglass during a hockey game? Ah, no. Not only is it annoying IMO it isn't safe. Over the years I've been on high floors in office buildings that had floor to ceiling windows and no way would I or my husband let our kids near them without one of us having a tight grip on them.
Would I be okay with disregarding the safety policies of the cruise ship and hoist my kid up on a railing to bang on the glass? Nope. The railing was in place to keep people a safe distance away. But then I always use my seatbelts too. And I sure wouldn't hire a nanny or babysitter who had a pile of tickets for not using theirs. MOO.
