Description: The Costa Concordia disaster occurred on January 13, 2012, when the Italian cruise ship struck a rock off the coast of Isola del Giglio and partially capsized, resulting in the deaths of 32 people. The ship, carrying over 4,200 passengers and crew, deviated from its planned course in a maneuver known as a “salute,” allegedly to impress people onshore. Captain Francesco Schettino was heavily criticized for abandoning ship during the evacuation and was later convicted of manslaughter, causing a shipwreck, and abandoning his post, receiving a 16-year prison sentence.
