MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Another day, another version of the story from the captain of the Costa Concordia who reportedly abandoned ship after it slammed into submerged rocks off the coast of Tuscany last Friday and partially capsized.

Originally Francesco Schettino insisted that he stayed aboard until the ship was evacuated.

However, an audio recording made public Tuesday made it clear he fled before all passengers were off — and then defied Italian Coast Guard Capt. Gregorio De Falco’s repeated orders to go back.

“Listen Schettino,” De Falco can be heard shouting in the audio tape. “There are people trapped on board. … You go on board and then you will tell me how many people there are. Is that clear?”

But Schettino resisted.

“I am here with the rescue boats. I am here. I am not going anywhere. I am here,” he said. “I am here to coordinate the rescue.”


The latest version from Schettino is that he didn’t intentionally abandoned ship, rather he tripped and fell into a life boat.

CBS News reports that according to La Repubblica Schettino told a judge during questioning on Tuesday that he was trying to help evacuate the passengers when he accidentally fell into a life boat.

“I didn’t even have a life jacket because I had given it to one of the passengers. I was trying to get people to get into the boats in an orderly fashion. Suddenly, since the ship was at a 60 to 70 degree angle, I tripped and I ended up in one of the boats. That’s how I found myself in the lifeboat,” said Schettino. “Suspended there, I was unable to lower the boat into the sea, because the space was blocked by other boats in the water.”

How the hell can a ship with the most modern navigation equipment and trained crew hit a reef?

I think the ex captain has something to answer.

Go to jail...do not pass go.

Can you imagine the sheer terror of being on that ship? I have been on cruises, and it has never occurred to me that the captain might try a crazy stunt. People have died, because this man, I can't even call him a Captain, decided to have a little fun. He deserves to go to jail for a long time.....he is a coward, a show off, and a murderer.

No doubt he should be imprisoned. But I think it should be for nothing less than multiple murders

its one thing to pull a stunt that endangers all on board and another thing entirely to abandon the ship before the passengers when the stunt in question goes bad.

manslaughter charges aren't sufficient, this has to be murder 2nd degree. the captain purposefully and knowingly put the ship in danger that could result in death, in the US that's murder 2.

and then abandoning ship himself in the most cowardly fashion cements that charge, leaving innocent passengers to fend for themselves.......

yeh I don't know about all this...seems every time there's a major disaster it's always blamed on a single individual. I have no opinion on his guilt. I don't know enough about it to want to lynch him. :)
