He knew what his roll was in that position before he accepted that post. I feel the shock of the situation he found himself to be in overloaded him and his own drive for self-preservation took over. He is a failure and deserves prison time.

william jafta ...That’s why Capt De Falco is a leader & in charge. There is a code of honour & a duty of responsibility to the people on that ship. Forget the philosophical bullshit & do the right thing. If every soldier, pilot & sailor had your mindset in WW2, we’d all be speaking German now.

[@LeriHunter]

@william jafta Because Schettino is SUPPOSED TO : a.Know he will have to deal with this situation b.Have the skills and training to manage that situation better than anyone on the boat. This include surviving. c.Put said skills to use in that precise situation because it is his job and his responsibility. When you're the captain of a boat, you're responsible for the lives of the people that use your boat to travel. If someone dies? You're responsible. This is why Schettino got torn a new one. A captain is supposed to quit his boat last, as if someone dies on the boat when he could have done something, he will be LEGALLY RESPONSIBLE. Is it easier to give this order when you're comfortable in your chair? Yes. But if you can't consider risking your life for people because you f***ed up, then you don't become a boat captain. Instead, you find yourself a cushy office job. But of course, you won't have a boat to show off, nor a chance to be responsible for one of the hugest, most stupid screw up in mairitime history. I also want to point out that apparently a rescuer sent by Falco climbed abroad to help people there. And now that the timeline of events has been published, everybody can notice that Schetinno downplayed the situation and waited around an hour between the moment he crashed and the moment he started the evacuation. In conclusion, he's a coward who didn't have a spine strong enough for his job, prefered for other people to risk his life while he had a bigger responsibility (a well as the skills to deal with the situation at hand), and initially made the situation WORSE.

[@gmarku1738]

@@MustafaKulle Personally I have studied the whole issue thoroughly, given to the hand. And, fortunately, I do NOT inform myself from the news for decades. Schettino is the least guilty of all... I report the salient data: 1) Costa (like other companies) backed, with tacit agreement, the "bows" 2) It is mathematically proven that, if the helmsman had correctly carried out Schettino’s order, the impact would not have occurred, or at most there would have been a very slight contact that would have allowed even the continuation of the cruise. 3) Who should, DID NOT inform Schettino of the error of the helmsman, therefore the Captain, at least at the beginning, could not know what really happened believing that the impact was much less important than it really was. 4) Schettino got off the ship on the LAST boat 5) The De Falco phenomenon, in an abusive way, has tried to get publicity with his phone calls (his chance of life) not being territorially competent. 6) The snake mentioned by De Falco had been underwater for over 1 hour. In order to get on board, a spear would have had to carry Schettino to the other end of the ship, and a special equipment was needed, not present. 7) the competent authority territorially (Rome) knew that Schettino was on the cliff coordinating, and they felt continuously. 8) The watertight doors (of low quality) did not hold and allowed the water to flood more compartments, where water could NEVER and had to enter. 9) The maneuver of Schettino, to lay the ship on a low bottom and very close to the coast, has allowed, the rescue of over 4 thousand people... Now I’m not saying it’s not Schettino’s fault. Something may have been omitted or wrong, but among all the participants: Company, Crew, Maritime Authorities, is the least guilty of all.

No the captain MUST remain on the ship as long there’s anyone still onboard which in this case there was a couple asleep in their cabin trapped meaning that until they were rescued the captain is NOT leaving the bridge.

It angers me on an immense level to think that in the exact moment this conversation was happening and while Schettino was vomiting all of these vacant words with his ass sat on a lifeboat with a lifejacket on him there were people trapped inside the boat drowning, people severely injured, people stranded in the sea (in January at night in complete darkness) with many kids amongst them. 32 people lost their life (kids as well), 32 families were destroyed and having to live with the pain of MONTHS worth of work to find all the corpses, 32 people were helplessly trapped in the dark underwater dying scared and alone probably aware of facing death within minutes...and in the meantime the person who was in charge, who was responsible for their safety and their safe escape was on a lifeboat bringing him to land leaving everyone behind. I honestly have no idea how """captain""" Schettino has the guts to wake up in the morning and look at himself in the mirror without being disgusted by his own actions but regardless of religions and different beliefs, I personally want to believe that everything we do (good and bad) is taken care of, let it be a God or karma...it will come back to him.

To understand why the captain of the rescue vessel is so outraged, one needs to understand three things: (A) It is a sacred tradition through all martitime history that the captain leaves a sinking ship last. This is because every one aboard, working for him or not, entrusted their lives to his hands - so he is expected to save everybody before him if anything goes wrong. (B) It is also a very modern piece of maritime law than in the event of a sinking the captain is the incident commander on board while the captain of the first responding vessel is the incident commander off board (i.e. coordinating other ships for the rescue). If the captain of either vessel abandons their task (and it isn't picked up by someone who is trained, able and willing) the rescue is immediately a hundred times more difficult and cassualty will needlessly skyrocket. (C) The italian coast guard is a (para-)military organization that is run a very strict hierarchie. It was probably unfathomable to the CG captain what Schettino did, but on top of that he also had the gall to defy direct orders from the coast guard in italian waters. Schettino managed to piss off the three elements that make De Falco the man he is simoultaneously: the seafarer, the law enforcment officer and the soldier.

True, though 'go down with the ship' is a bit of a misnomer. He is supposed to stay on the ship till everyone else got off, or at least everyone they could possibly get off. He is neither expected to literally drown with the ship nor is he expected to dive 20 meters or something to check if people are stuck in flooded compartments. All the more reason why its so cowardly Schettino didnt stay, its not like he was supposed to lay down his life or something.

While Schettino was incompetent and abandoned his duty as the captain of a ship he could at least have saved much of his reputation by listening to De Falco and go back onboard and do whatever he could. At least he would have shown to the court he did an effort to help people - however small. By abandoning his ship, ignoring De Falco's advice/orders and going home he sealed his fate and people obviously branded him the biggest coward and irresponsible jerk ever.

On the 5th of July 2014 Schettino had a seminary in La Sapienza university, Rome. The seminary was about panic management. He was invited by a criminology teacher. I think this is the worst part. A joke to whoever lost a relative or friend on that tragic day.

[@Doctor699]

Exactly, he could have saved himself by going back on board and doing whatever he could, however small that would have been. He'd have proven something to himself as well had he done that. Now for all time he's going to be remembered as a coward. But he's chosen his fate. The Captain holds the ultimate responsibility and should be the last man off the vessel. That applies especially in an emergency, to get all the passengers and crew off the vessel or die trying. If that's impossible the Captain goes down with his ship as honourable Captains in history have proven.

De Falco wasn’t supposed to handle the rescue but he did because he knew he was able to and there was no time to waste. it’s sad that the navy put him aside because he “showed off too much” intervening according to them. He was and still is honored by people but his peers reacted enviously.

After this incident, De Falco was demoted, because the boat accident did not happen in the area he was actually in charge of, and he took control anyway because nobody else had. However, his popularity soared and he got into politics and joined the left wing of the Five Star Movement. The party at one point decided to vote to bar refugees from entering Italy, and De Falco refused, having spent much of his Coast Guard career rescuing them. He was later expelled from the party. In 2021 he joined the centre-left Centro Democratico. After this call, Schettinno did not get back aboard the ship. He was found by a police officer hiding in the rocks on shore. The officer offered to help him find a boat back, but he declined. The officer noted that he was dry. Schettinno maintained that he had slipped and fallen off the ship and landed in the life raft. After a five year trial, he was sentenced to 16 years in prison. Ten for manslaughter, 5 for causing the accident, and 1 for abandoning his duty. His incarceration began in 2017.
