The SOP of driving the ship out to sea to avoid the legal jurisdiction and dump the perp off at a location without pressing charges DEMANDS the ship's captain be aware of the issue.
no....I am saying you don't know whether the captain was told anything. Unless I missed it in the article?
So as far as the captain knows...they leave port....then this crime occurred.
"But she wasn’t allowed to call it in, so the ship left port with both the victim and pedo still on board and Disney only called in the crime after the ship was out of US waters, at which point no US entity wanted to deal with the matter. Describing why that happened, Dawn then said:

The article does not contain the sum total of the event.
On a ship, the captain is king. If there's an SOP to run away from jurisdiction to cover crimes aboard ship, then there is exactly zero chance the ship's captain does not know of the crime that needs to be run from.
You are assuming that there is SOP to run away from jurisdiction....THAT is what I am saying....none of us knows if the captain knew. The captain is king, but he is not omnipotent.
If this was the first and only time this very same type of issue has come up re: cruise ships, then you might, maybe, have a point.
I used the term SOP because it is, actually, in fact, industry wide SOP.
And yes, the captain is always aware of such things because he's the individual that the company will fire if such cases ever do reach proper jurisdiction.
Can't have people talking about bad things associated with the cruise line. Bad for business.
Basing reality or its limits by what an author chooses to include or not in a single article isn't best practice.
