PANAMA CITY, Panama?? The lawyer for a Panamanian man who watched two companions die while surviving at sea for 28 days in their small disabled boat says he's suing a U.S. cruise line because one of its ships failed to help.
Attorney Edna Ramos says the lawsuit alleging negligence by Princess Cruise Lines has been filed in a Florida state court on behalf of Adrian Vazquez.
