Woman with ship captain defends his actions
Italian media have said prosecutors yearning to interview 25-year-old Dominica Cermotan, who had worked for Costa as a hostess eloquent in several languages but was not on duty when she boarded the ship Jan. 13 in the Italian anchorage of Civitavecchia.
The $450 million Costa Concordia was carrying more than 4,200 passengers and body when it slammed into well-marked rocks off the Tuscan island of Giglio on Jan. 13 after the captain made an unapproved diversion from his programmed route. The ship then keeled over on its side and is still half-submerged wellnigh a week later.
In interviews with Moldovan media and on her own Facebook page, Cermotan said she was called up to the tie of the Concordia after it struck the reef to translate evacuation instructions for Russian passengers. She defended Capt. Francesco Schettino, who has been vilified in the Italian media for leaving his embark before everyone was evacuated safely.
"He did a great thing, he saved over 3,000 lives," she told Moldova's Jurnal TV.
