    Jennifer Hagel never gave the impression that she was devastated or even upset by the death of her husband. She passes out in the hallway like a bum on a street corner? What's up with that? The whole case always seemed fishy to me. She collected her million dollars and moved on pretty quickly for someone who was supposed to be in love. I feel so sorry for the family.

      none ya biz When all the open lines of investigation have been pursued without finding enough evidence to identify the person that committed the crime, and there is no evidence to open new lines, there's nowhere to go. The FBI works with public money and cannot spend it running around in circles. Not 100% of the cases are solvable. The ones that are not must be closed. If new evidence is found, they will reopen it.

      He was mudered by his wife flirting friends
      And she probably paid them
      After all she wasn't knitting classes at the end of the boat
      When he was being mudered and throw over board
      Wife should have went back to the room at 3=45 am
      No she got these 4 strange ers to do him in
      As she continues to galavanting with other males

    8/18/19.....10 yr old case + this video is 4-5 yrs old.....So 26 yr old man would now be 40! Time goes on but NOT FOR GEORGE'S FAMILY + FRIENDS.
    1st I thought bride was fussing with the groom/George....maybe b/c he was gambling/spending time with his NEW 4 Russian friends.
    There was speculation that bride was "flirting" & "carrying on" with the 4 Russian guys to make George jealous.
    Then retired LA police/detective who was on the cruise with his wife---in the cabin nextdoor said he heard lots of noise/figjting/shouting/furniture being moved @ 3am & it was so BAD that it woke him up. Now THIS is a retired LA policeman---so I would imagine he knows what he's talking about!
    Then bride is found "passed out" in hallway---with little to no clothing & completely "roughed up".
    Then turns out all the money George won gambling is misding.
    AND there is George's BLOOD @ his cabin's balcony door + on the balcony + on the awning/canopy of the cabin immediately below/ on the next lower floor.
    And it seems the bride WASN'T too concerned b/c she supposedly went to the spa the next a.m.
    PLUS the bride supposedly had a $1 million insurance policy on "good old missing groom" George.
    NOT TO MENTION the cruise line supposedly QUICKLY "settled" the case/claim by giving her $1 million!
    And SUPPOSEDLY the "not grieving too much" bride was remarried within 1 yr---SUPPOSEDLY AFTER her cruise line settlement + NOT TESTIFYING/PUSHING for info about "dear departed" late George!
    TOO MANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS CASE & WE'LL NEVER KNOW THE COMPLETE TRUTH unless somebody is "driven to telling the truth" on his/her death bed.
    GEORGE sure seemed to pick the wrong woman to marry---the wrong honeymoon---
    My SYMPATHY is with George's family & "real" friends....
    RIP George!

    I have read about this case many times. Different accounts. One thing that always comes across to me...the "bride", never seemed upset. Also the new "bride" cut herself off from her new family...I just found that odd. Of course no one knows all that was said or what not but it just seems weird.

  • @BoyG10

    I've every reason to believe it was part manslaughter and part conspiracy. George's wife was indeed in the room when the 4 chaps brought him back. George's inebriation caused an argument to break up between himself and the 4 chaps over perhaps suspicion of having designs on his wife or his exclusive watch. An altercation then ensued. George was injured in the midst of the fight and knocked out (Blood stains on the bed sheets explained). The 4 chaps then left the room. His wife, possibly overtaken by greed to claim compensation conjured up a plan to throw her hubby overboard as if it was an accidental fall. She struggled to drag, lift and toss him due to his larger physique (That explained the bad throw which caused George to hit the side of the ship and thus his blood stains). Well, her reactions towards his hubby's disappearance and responses thereafter, with whatever possible means she could deny sent shivers to my spine (Check out her expressions as she spoke for the press). There is a possibility too it's a conspiracy between herself and the 4 chaps whom she had already knew all along. Hopefully, the parents of George could find the culprits and find justice for their son.

    This case is disturbing on so many levels: there was no real love or loyalty between them as evidenced by their honeymoon. Alcohol played a major role in their demise, and in an odd way, there’s no real remorse for the loss of groom from his wife, family or authorities. Just blame shifting!

  • @smwokk
    @smwokk 5 років тому +8

    how can they close the case when there is a life sized, very detailed blood stain on the canopy below his cabin? It is even apparent his throat was cut just by a glance at the photo. Lazy detective work.

    • @StaceofCakes
      @StaceofCakes 4 роки тому +6

      Agreed. The FBI tried to say he fell, hit the canopy, then later rolled off into the ocean. The canopy was not terribly far beneath their balcony. He would not have received injuries from a short fall that would be consistent with so much blood. There is so much more to the story. How heartbreaking for his parents & sister.

    She definitely was flirty early in the night
    But she ended up at the other end of the boat

    It's obviously this so called wife
    I wonder she started the fight flirting around 4
    + Other men she allowed these stranger s to bring her husband back to the room
    Why didn't she go back.
