Months after the grandfather of 18-month-old Chloe Wiegand pled guilty to negligent homicide, Royal Caribbean has been “cleared of wrongdoing.”
Anello has claimed that he didn’t know the one window they were standing at was open.
“When he arrives at the open window, and while Chloe is on the floor, Mr. Anello leans his upper-torso over the wooden railing and out of the window frame for approximately eight seconds.”
“He has said all along that ‘I didn’t mean to do this.’ He doesn’t think he should be charged. His attorneys have signaled he doesn’t want to accept the plea deal.'”
The purpose of the news conference is “to continue to raise awareness about window fall dangers and to honor Chloe’s memory by fighting for justice.”
“The thing that he has repeatedly told us is, ‘I believed that there was glass.’ He will cry over and over and over. … She was his best friend.”
The family holds the cruise line responsible for the death of their 18-month-old daughter, Chloe.
