Death At Sea Cruise Ship
Jeff Gilligan, who was a passenger on the American-based cruise ship Star Princess last March, holds a laptop in Portland, Ore., Thursday, April 19, 2012, with the photo he took of a fishing vessel adrift in the Pacific Ocean off the Galapagos Islands while on the cruise. Gilligan and another American aboard the cruise ship, in the same area, believe they saw the fishermen adrift at sea and they alerted the crew, but the luxury liner continued on its course. Two of the three men in the fishing vessel died from exposure. The company that owns the Star Princess cruise ship says it is looking into whether the crew ignored the fishermen's signals that they needed help. (AP Photo/Jeff Gilligan)
