Family of missing man sues cruise-ship line

STAMFORD, Conn. (AP) — The family of a man who vanished from his honeymoon cruise a year ago filed a lawsuit Thursday accusing the cruise line of a cover-up that hindered the investigation.

George Allen Smith IV, 26, of Greenwich, vanished July 5 from a Royal Caribbean ship in the Mediterranean between Greece and Turkey after an apparent late night of drinking. Bloodstains were found on a canopy that covers lifeboats.

The FBI is investigating, but no one has been charged and no body has been found.
