The family of a French explorer who died during an infamous private voyage to the Titanic wreck site last year is suing OceanGate, the sea exploration firm that operated the submarine, arguing the company didn’t disclose problems with the sub before it imploded with five people inside.
The lawsuit criticizes the submersible’s “hip, contemporary” wireless electronics system as faulty and claims the controller, controls and gauges on the vessel would not work without a constant power source and wireless signal, which the vessel likely lost within 90 minutes of starting the dive. Nargeolet, an “experienced adventurer and explorer,” would not have been a passenger aboard the submersible if Rush disclosed “all the troubles” experienced with the submersible, which other OceanGate employees were also allegedly aware of, attorney Matt Shaffer said in a statement.We’re launching text message alerts so you'll always know the biggest stories shaping the day’s headlines.
