TAKING ANOTHER LOOK UK MP wants investigation into disappearance on Disney Wonder

Posted on 09/26/2016

In March 2011, Rebecca Coriam, a 24-year-old British child-minder working on the Disney Wonder, disappeared off the cruise ship somewhere between California and Mexico. Her body was never found and UK police were prevented from investigating her disappearance because the ship was registered in the Bahamas. A British MP has conducted his own research into the case and fears she might have been murdered.

Chris Matheson, MP for Chester, has met with representatives from the Foreign Office and wants them to investigate.
A Bahamian investigation concluded her disappearance was not suspicious, but it has been criticised for interviewing just six crew members were interviewed and the majority of the 3,000 passengers onboard weren't questioned.
Coriam was working on the ship. It was initially suspected that she had been washed overboard by a freak wave, but CCTV footage later emerged of her on the fifth deck at 5.45am looking 'distressed' and tugging at what appeared to be men's clothes she was wearing.
Among the items returned to her parents were a pair of ripped shorts, which raised concerns she might have been sexually assaulted.
The Hollywood Reporter said the family had accepted an undisclosed sum from Disney in an out of court settlement in 2015. Under the terms of the settlement, they are allegedly unable to discuss the case.
