Cruise Ship Death - George Smith

[Nandee]

United States authorities are probing the disappearance early last month of a Connecticut man who was on a honeymoon cruise through the Mediterranean. They say it appears foul play may have been involved.

George Allen Smith IV was halfway into the cruise with his bride, Jennifer Hagel, when he vanished while the ship was off the Turkish coast, according to The Early Show co-anchor Hannah Storm.

"The captain came on and announced to everyone that there was a passenger missing," says Linda Bruck, who was on board the Royal Caribbean's "Brilliance of the Sea" with her husband, Larry Bruck.

They say they didn't see Smith or Hagel, but heard all the rumors.

"That there was a possibility he had winnings that people knew he had won and that they were after," is how Larry Bruck describes one such rumor.

"The most outrageous rumor I heard was that there was an old boyfriend on board," says Linda Bruck.

Another passenger thought something might be amiss when Smith disappeared.

Clete Hyman, who was in an adjoining cabin to that of Smith and Hagel, recently recalled what he heard through the walls in the early morning hours of July 5: "The impact, it sounded like something really heavy, and my first thought was maybe throwing furniture overboard," Hyman said on "Scarborough Country" on MSNBC. "All of a sudden, there (was) some very loud arguing out on the balcony."

Candid testimony like that is unlikely to be repeated anytime soon, Storm observes, since Turkish authorities turned the case over to Washington, and the FBI and U.S. Attorney's Office are now in charge of the investigation.

Witnesses have been gagged, and the U.S. officials are doing all the talking.

I am ignorant of this case...Could he of been drunk from champagne or belated wedding jitters! Sorry, that last one was a joke but it did cross my mind. :eek:

[Nandee]

He was drunk... but there was a lot of blood, so me thinks this smells like murder...

[Lyte]

I think he was tossed overboard.

I'm hoping the ships cameras will tell the true story....

[NicoMoon]

I'm hoping the ships cameras will tell the true story....

Wow Nandee!! Do you mean to say they haven't viewed the ship security tapes yet?

What I got from this story is that there are lots of crimes that take place on cruise ships, but the big companies hush them up so they don't get a bad name.

All things considered, you couldn't drag me onto a cruise ship. I know everyone loves them, but besides being floating bacteria plants, they don't seem to be very safe either. I can stay home and stuff my face if that's what I'm in the mood to do. :dork:

I haven't heard too much more about this case, but the last thought I had was that the guy likely was so drunk that he fell. Still a mystery about the bride though, why she's been so quiet on the topic.


Im afraid this might just end up being another situation like the Natalee Holloway case, where we never do get to the bottom of the situation due to cover-ups and bungles. :brothas:

[sparkie]

If tossed, maybe my a former lover of the bride's or unhappy new bro-in-law or merely a pickpocket.

Blood at the scene, did they mention a possible weapon?

[Nandee]

I've not heard a weapon mentioned. Things have been verry quiet in this case.

[Antonio]

I also have not heard anything on this case. I am going to try to look up some information on it.

Hey, thanks for the info! I'm a Rita Cosby fan, missed her since she left Fox and keep forgetting to check her out on MSNBC.

The family has filed a wrongfull death suit against RCCL. Maybe the facts will finally be told.....

Nandee I am afraid that now that there is more legal involvement there will be more lies told. I guess I am turning into a pessimist hanging around the court cases.

I agree with Nioc that the birde justs ems to eb abit toomquiet. Yes, we all handle gried difenretly but she just has nto respeodn at all ro had anyoen spek on ehr behalf. I didsee mom, dad, and sister on nacy Grace. I am thinking that if the winnings are true then he wa smugged. When w ewent away top the Crabena afewe wer warend obver and over that ther si ahigh criminal elment everwher looking fior peole who look liek tourists so anybody ona cruise ship woudl eb fair game. The blood looks liek soemoen wa spulled and I belive the if the thid is true then eh w astatcked in hsi room and thrown overboard. The sad thsing is if that story IS true then they will never get their son bakc.

The thing that made me the sickest is that the cruise line stayed on course.The fact that the passengers did not think that was highly inappropriate is beyond dme. I would think that would be proof positive that I am not safe and would be off at the next port.The fact that the ship really did not act appropriately would be my second clue that I could go missing at sea anytime and no one would be concerned! How selfish of this company, crew and passengers.

I am sure the company would have helped compensate those who wanted off in Turkey.It blows my mind.

The issue of international waters is a tricky one here and we are only talking fish. But the laws and who owns what part gets very legal to the point no thing gets resolved. Sadly it is also an excuse not to resolve anything.

I hope the family can find some closure and healing.

[Nandee]

We can hope the video tapes will tell the truth!

OMG okay I have a confession....no I do not drink..I am dyslexic..honest..no it is not a covenient excuse and I sometimes do not see where I have to correct it and after the last time I used spell check I lost my brilliant post to Nico. I have to go by what I see and it looks fine to me..

:lol: too comical ..ahem

I agree with Nico that the bride just seems to be a bit too quiet.Yes, we all handle grief differently but she just has not responded at all or anyone on her behalf. I did see mom, dad, sister on Nancy Grace. I am thinking that if the winnings are true then he was mugged.

When we went away to the Caribbean we were warned over and over there there was a high criminal element every where looking for people who looked like tourists so anybody on a acruise ship would be fair game.

The blood looks like someone was pulled and I believe if the thud was true then then he wa sattacked in his room and thrown overboard.

The sad thing is if this story is true they will never get their son back.

Okay...I'll stop displacing the blame...lol Sometimes my posts look like that because I've placed my hands on the keyboard one key over to the left or right of the home keys, and I type merrily away not realizing it.

I also confess that I eat at the computer. Sometimes my keys stick because of the crumbs in the keyboard...lol It drives my hubby absolutely bonkers!

As to drinking...I'm a lightweight. Two drinks and I'm dancin' on the bar! Whoohoo!

On a more serious note, my best friend is dyslexic (sp) and I understand from her that it's a real struggle. I'm sorry you have to contend with that.

Just teasing ya Tersi!

NOPERONI, I cannot blame the hands on keyboard though my cat has made me look worse than I am at times:)))

I have what is called secondary dyslexia- it is the result of a adverse side effects from medications. I was misdiagnosed deliberately LONG STORY (wink wink) and it was part of the overall 'brain damage' I have and why I am now on disability.

It first it was frustrating and I would cry as I was a great speller all my life and I was known for it so when people would ask me to spell for them I could not.I had to teach myself to read again and that took time.

My worse is after dealing with my ego and accepting I have limitations.The first devastation occurred when I sent an email to someone I didnot know, business.When I realized about a week later that part of it looked like I was drunk, I cried for hours. That happened about 3 times that I know of.
I cried each time.
It is different when your galpals know they try to work around it but first impressions it is not good as they may think you ARE drunk or stupid.

The only time I had a difficult time with it was at CTV. I was bashed almost everday for it.The one and only GOOD thing that came out of being terrorized and stalked on board was my spelling and typing have improved.

'They' would wait at the gates for me to come in with a new dress on and watch INTENTLY for any signs of dyslexia or other things that made me ..me.

So I had to work harder and type slower to FOOL them and I always did...until they sat 24 hours analying me and of course my stance on issues cannot change so they found me with you know whose help everytime.


Anyway it was the first time I ever came across discrimination for disbilities and the CTv is the ONLY place that bashed people for it or laughed about it.


It is shameful!

But now I can laugh at myself. :dork:

I don't know much about dyslexia but it must be a real pain in the behind. The spelling police enjoy pointing out my errors as well. I have to laugh because if that is all they have to make them feel superior...hey...enjoy it! One poster even counted the number of words of my posts...sheesh!

Hello Everyone ~I am new here but see that some of you are following this case. Please help me out if possible ~ I caught part of Nancy Grace tonight and I thought they said that blood was also found either under the sheets or under the bed in the cabin. Can someone confirm the details on this? TIA...........JR


PS. I look forward to posting with everyone ~ this is an interesting board and I have enjoyed lurking for quite some time.

[Nandee]

jack... It was reported that blood was found under the bedspread. Nothing has been confirmed....

Thank you Nandee for the quick response and confirming what was said. I thought I must have misunderstood when I caught part of that tonight.

Personally, I find this to be very interesting information, especially considering that it has been reported over and over that no blood other than on the deck was found. ( up until now)

I don't know that this will ever be solved because so many errors have been made and so much time has passed, but it sure is an interesting case that's for sure.

Hi Jack,

This is the first I've heard of blood under the bedspread. That would suggest that the couple had used the bed after housekeeping cleaned the room. But they were newlyweds so that's likely. The bride would be my chief suspect but he was a big man so she would have had to have had help moving his body. You're right Jack, this is a very interesting case.

Which is why I announce to the world that I cannot spell. I used to keep a dictionary on my desktop and look up words... but life is short. As long as people can understand what I mean, I'm not gonna worry if worry has one r or two!


But as for this case, I know very little about it. I do not blame the Bride for keeping quiet. I don't trust the media, as soon as She opens her mouth they will be all over her and twist her words so the true meaning of her words may be lost. I think, (God Forbid) if anything were to ever happen to my Husband, the LAST people I would talk to would be the media. But then, I am a very private person.

On a related topic, this has bugged me for a while...

"He didn't show any remorse" or "She didn't appear to be grieving"
(Not talking about a particular case here, I've heard this for years)
We all grieve and react to situations in our own way, I just hate it when the media makes it sound like that is any indication of ANYTHING..... it just gets on my last nerve.

You're right, people do react differently, but I think there are degrees to this. An example would be Scott Peterson laughing and joking at his missing wife's vigil, and all the other numerous occassions he displayed odd behavior. The bride in this case gave an interview last week and I found her behavior very odd. I don't remember which station this was on, perhaps MSNB, but she was smiling and appeared to be genuinely happy, a la Scott Peterson. Being a private person and not wanting people to see you cry is one thing, being chipper and happy is quite another. There are examples of behavior so far out of the norm that it warrants a comment of "She didn't appear to be grieving". Who knows, maybe she's just a ditz whose feelings don't run any deeper than capillary level, but I find her oddly devoid of emotion.

I have to admit, I am somewhat suspicious of the wife. When she talks about how her husband chose to sleep in the new found friends bedroom rather than with her - that just didn't sit right with me. However, there is no way she could have killed him and then lifted the body to throw him overboard - and who would participate in disposing his body with her unless this was a very calculated, premeditated murder?!

I also find it odd that she wanted to go home immediately; she went in, packed her belongings and went home - rofl - I dunno, just doesn't pass the smell test to me.

[Nandee]

I think the cruise line packed her belongings, but I agree she is acting strange. Here is her website: http://www.hagelsmith.com/

G. SMITH: Excuse me. There was blood found in the room. There was blood found in the bathroom and a little bit I guess out on the deck and then down on the awning over the top of the rowboat or whatever.

I agree she couldn't have thrown him overboard all by herself. Do you know how long they had been a couple, or anything about her personal background? If she is involved, and that is a big "IF", perhaps she and another (as yet unknown) lover wanted to start their lives together with a nice little bankroll from George's life insurance, as well as any of his other assets.

I dunno either, but something sure is hinky about this case...lol

I've just been reading the interview from your link and there were a few things that struck me. The FBI told the wife (Jennifer) not to discuss it with anyone, even his family. My bet is that it's because Jennifer is a suspect and LE doesn't want her talking to anyone. If she were to talk to someone about it that would generate further questions, enabling her to discover where the possible holes were in her story and plug those holes right up. Collaborating is a no no and this leads me to believe she is a person of interest, if not a suspect.

It would be natural for Jennifer to grieve with George's family despite the restrictions from the FBI, but they don't appear to be very close do they? I get the impression they don't have much of a relationship with Jennifer, and that makes me wonder why.

[Nandee]

RCCL's attorney just admitted there was a 'smidgeon' of blood on the sheet and blood in the bathroom on towles and tissues. The FBI has not said whose blood it is.

That's curious. Did Jennifer stay in the room that night? I'm not really up to speed on this case and I obviously have a lot of reading to do...lol

[Nandee]

She was found unconcious in the hallway and was taken back to her room via wheelchair and was left on the bed. I think that was about 4:30 am. She managed to get to her massage appointment around 8:00am and was wearing the same clothing she had on the night before.

Tersi, I agree that there does not seem to be much of a bond/relationship between bride and folks.I noticed that when they discussed her on NG they were not rude or warm but....perfunct.

And yes let me see I am found knocked out then go for massage but new hubby missing?

Yes, and she showed her inner self when all she cared about was getting an apology from the cruise line CEO. I mean it was getting embarassing, and he more then made amends probably three times; until Oprah finally put a stop to Jennifer's embarassing rantings. She is very Peterson like, and George wasn't her priority - just how "She" was treated and so fourth. For the most part, she was treated quite well. But she did rant and rave about how they should have paid for her flight home and everything, ....George who??? It was all about Jennifer!

[Nandee]

I wish Oprah had asked about the Absinthe they were reported to be drinking.

George's folks were on LKL, and they came out and said they believe that she is hiding something. They don't understand how she had a lapse in memory. For that matter Jennifer said on Oprah she doesn't understand it either as her and George weren't big drinkers.

What I don't understand is how they can find her in the wee hours of the morning passed out in the hall, she needs a wheel chair to get back to her room and a few hours later she is up for a morning at the spa. And why in the heck would she think that George spent the night in a friends cabin when they were on their honeymoon.

Also it really wasn't until the end of Oprahs show that she really put the focus on George, stating that this case is about George and they want answers.

One other question, what does Henry Lee really think he is going to find after 6 months?

That's where Jennifer was caught in a big bold face on Oprah, (weren't big drinkers) It was widely reported that's all they did on that cruise! Their poor neighbors had to keep calling security because of their noisy, obnoxious partying into all hours of the night. So what else is she lieing about??

[lcsamano]

Does anyone know what happened with this case? It kinda just went away in the media. I would really like to know if they found anything out. I really think from the actions of the wife that she might have had something to do with it.
