The lawsuit claims Robert Jones’s body was placed inside a walk-in cooler, normally used for drinks, for almost a week instead of a properly chilled morgue as promised.
According to Sky News, Jones died of a heart attack while onboard the vessel in August last year.
Filed in Florida, the lawsuit went on to state the body was found in an "advanced stage of decomposition" in a cooler in a bag on a pallet, despite Jones’s widow Marilyn claiming she was promised it would be stored in a properly chilled onboard morgue until the ship returned to Fort Lauderdale.
