Salvatore Anello, the man who pleaded guilty last year in connection with his 1-year-old granddaughter's fatal fall from a cruise ship, has been sentenced to three years of probation, Puerto Rican authorities announced Monday. Anello was charged with negligent homicide in the death of Chloe Wiegand, who fell more than 100 feet from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship window in July 2019.
Wiegand fell from the docked ship after Anello held her up against what he said he believed was a set of closed windows and she slipped from his hands. Surveillance video obtained by CBS News showed the moments before the fatal fall, in which Wiegand ran to the windows with Anello trailing behind her. Anello could then be seen picking her up and holding her over the railing.

Michael Jackson was pretty careless with someone else’s child.
If the family continues to sue the cruise line my opinion will change...
Accepting your misfortune with stoicism & dignity is so 19th century.
I don’t understand your defense of this man....
....unless I was misled by the media and the family are not suing the cruise lines for a ton of money
It seemed grandpa’s story changed when he realized the cruise ship had video
Whatever
He has no class. He tried to blame the cruise ship for his major failure. Now that he has a plea deal with no jail time, he’s blaming his stupidity on his color blindness in not seeing the window was open. He’s only pleading guilty to satisfy the probation deal he got.
Got’cha. Wrong word.
Sure, to be sure the family is totally heartbroken but they are wrong suing the cruise line.
I realized it was the wrong word a split second after hitting the OK button.
