This is like one of those murder mysteries.

I wonder how many people were on the ship including staff. Do cruise ships typically have camera systems?

A cruise ship wouldn't be a very good place to carryout a premeditated murder, so I'm guessing this wasn't planned.

These cruise ships don't waste time, do they?

While the FBI awaits autopsy results, its investigative work on board the ship appears to be over.

In fact, the Enchantment of the Seas is already back out on its next cruise to the Bahamas.

Heart disease killed a 64-year-old passenger on a cruise ship out of Baltimore, the FBI said Thursday, ruling out foul play and ending a brief mystery as to how the Virginia woman died last weekend...

Kennedy had fallen in the cabin, sustaining a cut on her forehead, which caused the FBI to rule her manner of death as undetermined or "suspicious" until an autopsy could be performed...

Wolf did not release the name of Kennedy's husband but said he was cooperative throughout the investigation and has been through an ordeal.

Ohhh....very sad. I understand why they had to do a proper investigation of course, but how distressing for the poor husband. To have your wife die while on a lovely vacation and then be suspected of murdering her must have been incredibly painful for him.
