What Happened to Chloe Wiegand? 

I guess you have footage of the guy dropping the kid, so it's technically real footage of real abuse.

You made a video of a currently ongoing case about an infant's death and included an eyewitness account of the body. No shit a youtube rep is going to hedge their bets to keep some rando's video demonized

Social media all over the world is being scrutinized. Ridiculous as RU-vid's demonetization efforts seem, it does indeed seem to protect children on the platform. I know because we all sit in areas of RU-vid that are 100% adult that we expect it to cater to us. RU-vid does cater to children, however. It acknowledges as such and does its best to accommodate. If you don't like it, showcase your work on a platform that does not involve children.

Well, that sucks.

I think this is the very question posited by the video itself. Was Arnello negligent in her death? RU-vid votes YES

It's very clear that in order to maintain as a family in the face of this grief the blame has to be placed elsewhere. Not accurate but, unfortunately understandable because...ugh interpersonal relationships

@@FreyaEindeyep exactly

@@FreyaEinde Perhaps this would be an opportunity for intervention, based on his history of being a danger to himself and others. Intense outpatient counseling or banning from the family. Responsible decisions have to be made to protect those within the family that cannot protect themselves, which requires ccountability instead of rug-sweeping.

@@NeighborhoodOfBlue I wouldn’t even know where to begin with that especially in the parent’s shoes, because for starters the granddad has to want that for himself. I dunno having to support the killer of my kid through therapy or going directly through that confrontation of like family estrangement and putting everybody through that even people who weren’t there. I do not personally seeing myself having the energy or the strength to do that. I sympathize with the grief and it kinda sucks that the parent’s have chosen the crusade of litigation instead of facing their feelings of guilt and grief more directly their still stuck this idiot granddad and this dynamic of excusing him no matter what.

@@FreyaEinde might have been an insurance scam, the family was all in on it...

Well said.

Cops don't decide any of that, though. They ultimately don't decide charges and they don't decide how it will affect the defendant's life, if it will ruin their life. The individuals who do make those decisions definitely rely on certain work done by the cops (can only charge people who are arrested by the cops, after all)...but they can totally let them go. They might not even have a choice if the laws themselves are changed (which also won't & can't be done by the cops). If it were up to the cops, a lot more people would be in prison...considering how many actively dangerous repeat offenders are constantly released, despite all the cops believing it will put their safety at risk and/or believing they'll inevitably need to arrest them again anyways lol. _(I bring this up because there are legitimate problems with police, but many problems cannot be blamed on cops, yet I constantly see misplaced blame online (along with a general misunderstanding of what jobs - and problems - cops are even responsible for)...We can't actually solve problems if we misidentify the source.)_

Yeah that’s not normal behaviour. Seems manic to me. Even innocent people don’t do things like that. Interesting insight into what behaviour he deems as normal.

Behind every dumb sign is a dumbass who is the reason why it exists.

Equal to this, how is placing slide open windows at 150 feet of the ground a sane design feature. Leaving safety aside, the draft created by even a mild sea breeze, let alone the ship being fully underway at 30-50 kph (60-90 km/h) would create such draft it would be unbearable to sit there. I've been in plenty high rise buildings, and none of them had windows which could be fully opened for this very reason. if you need ventilation, well, you have ventilation and AC. Even right now, I live in a high rise building by the sea. The wind draft makes it very uncomfortable to sit outside half of the time, where the balcony is designed with chest high railings. So high off the ground, what is a pleasant breeze at ground level, due to friction with the land, feels nothing like that. While surely, it is highly irresponsible to place a child so close even to a closed window (you haven't check it is secured into place), that does not magically excuse this insanely dumb design on a cruise ship. I can say without any doubt, that half of the time, that play area is unsable without all the windows closed securely. Why even have them to slide open at waist high is mindboggling to me. A dumb adult bending over that window in a windy day could be blow clear off the ship, and unless he was some sort of performance jumper, at 150 feet high, he'd die on impact with the water, let alone concrete. How cruise ships get away with stuff you would never be allowed to build on land is absolutely crazy to me. And why people are so blindsided and focus on the grandparent being an idiot is most likely why these idiotic contraptions are allowed on cruise ships.

@@darthioan, It happen in the adult section. I have looked out the same window and yes even in port it will blow your head off which the grandfather did before lifting her up and out the window. I wanted to take a picture but didn’t because I didn’t want to drop my camera due to the wind.

​@@busymom7729 I stand corrected. Thank you. And to be very clear, I find that guy to be a reckless, mindnumbing idiot, along with the poor girl's parents who brought her on a cruise ship at an age where she shouldn't even be traveling, then left her with him. The whole thing looked so preventable if at any point any one of the parents had the realization they have to give a sh*t, that there is no such thing as vacation whith a toddler. It is relocation, because you have to bring in everything and the kitchen sink with you, and watch the kid like a f*ing hawk. (i am a father of a 2 year old boy, and i cannot wait for him to grow a bit older so that me and my wife can get back 5-10% of our lives back).

Actually I am not aware of any building where you can slide open a window rather than ever so slightly crack it open, 150 feet off the ground. I've worked or lived in high rise buildings for 20 years and I haven't seen one. Leaving aside things dropping from that height, even a fine breeze at ground level can be a full blown wind displacing anything that's not nailed inside the room. This does not excuse the grandparent's stupidity (if that was the case), but it is nevertheless an incredibly idiotic safety designed issue to be able to slide open a window at waist level so high off the ground. Even falling into the water would be lethal from such a height, and while the ship would be under way, I do not think it would make for a comfortable experience without all those panels closed. In most circumstances, you wouldn't be able to keep a glass on the table without being tipped over by the strong draft created through those wide openings.

100%

@@That_Trans_Kid calm down, keyboard warrior. Next time you want to start arguments on the internet, make sure you understand what you are reading. Nothing I said is arguing the fact that the grandfather was a reckless moron. Grow up.

@@darthioan its not a building, it's a ship. As a ship, it requires (and even has them aknowledge their understanding by signing a waiver) that the people who come aboard are aware of the inherent safety issues. TO be so blasted drunk that you forget you are on a ship 150 feet above the water and lift a baby ABOVE A RAILING is no longer the ships fault.

@@yesterdayseyes leftists? The cop and the lawyer?

We have the DNA of people who shat their pants at the sight of a sabretooth tiger near them. Not the DNA of people who said "Why panic about a darn kittie?"

I personally have done insane things at heights but always been careful to be as safe as possible while not denying the risk. That latter part is everything. This is just someone who cannot admit responsibility for his own actions, but they weren't his risks to take anyway. I think he should have already been prosecuted for reckless endangerment and manslaughter. It might sound harsh but this is the fairest outcome in the eyes of the law. He acted without concern for safety. Seemingly routinely. Clearly the law alone wasn't sufficient to break the pattern of reckless behaviour. But the law as a deterrent is for all, not just him. Personally I think he should be held accountable for what he did - and seen to be held accountable.

@@tttm99 "but they weren't his risks to take anyway" This is so important. I've repeatedly seen a "no risk, no fun" attitude at play when both the fun and the risk were that of another person, most of the time a child. A child who was either asked about whether they wanted to have the fun (and not told about the risk) or just not asked at all but just being put into positions where "they'd definitely have fun".

​@@camelopardalis84 Amen. Adults are meant to know the risks and inform the children. Not to suffocate them but to help them learn to be cautious. Interestingly, most children intuitively seem to know their limitations far better than adults around them and *don't* often seek to put themselves in severe danger where they understand it. But for the very young there's just too little defence. when a complex artificial environment is involved, an experienced adult, and a mere toddler who intuitively *wouldn't* seek that environment or situation, much less understand it, everything here rests on the responsibility of the adult. I think we suffer more in these last 50 years - non coincidentally the rough age of this man involved - with a terrifying deficit of willingness to predict and later accept the likely consequences of our actions. I have hopes young people today are starting to correct this. People endlessly talk about their freedoms - which I will defend with a passion. But so few talk as openly about their responsibilities. This isn't a niche situation here with "arguments on both sides". This is responsibility versus denial and blame. We each have a responsibility not to needlessly and recklessly endanger the lives of others - and this has to be one of the clearest cut cases I can imagine. It's awful. It's horrible. It's beyond tragic. But in now way does anything improve here when we indulge the idea that one can simply bury their head in the sand.

It's not a skill, it's a phobia. And how exactly is this infant supposed to act upon this ,"skill," as you call it?

@@GeorgRockallSchmidt They struck me as very similar stories, with similar fallouts. Both are not entirely accidents, as both followed deliberate acts by the person holding the child that increased the risk. Both families looked outwards to attribute the blame. It would be so hard to live with yourself or the family member who caused such a tragedy that any outside scapegoat would be necessary (perhaps) for some degree of relief. I am sorry for all involved. Georg, thanks for your insight. I didn't follow this story until I saw you having your 2c. Wanted to avoid trash media.

Thanks, I agree with everything you said. Except the 2c part, I don’t know what that means. Another similar story is “There’s Something Wrong with Aunt Diane.” Horrifying, but worth watching.

I'm from AUstralia too. There's lots of campsites where wild kangaroos have grown used to humans and graze around them, letting people walk right up to them. But they are not pets, not raised by humans, not trained. Kangaroos have a powerful kick, but their sharp claws used for digging can be dangerous too. Easy to tell the locals apart form the tourists. Saw a Russian couple putting their baby right up to the kangaroos for selfies. Children are unpredictable and curious. Who knows how long before a kid decides to squeeze and kangaroo's nose.

@@cash4goldteeth absolutely. Thank you for sharing.

The answer, of course, is not at the cost of society. I completely agree with you. It's beyond tragic. But failing to engage with the truth here could very well cost more still. And we all need to have an attitude more towards improving ourselves rather than simply failing to bear the painful consequences of our own decisions. Anyone can make a tragic mistake. That's the first hurdle to overcome. But understanding accidents most often occur when the "holes in the slices of swiss cheese" of circumstances align is second. Third is that some very obvious dangers should stop being routinely overlooked. Layer upon layer of this tragedy is clearly the responsibility of the adult in question. Being in the vicinity of a bar while in supervision of a toddler. Going to a high window. Going to one clearly open and misrepresenting this, or seeking the glass with a child but not testing it himself first. Keeping the child there. The child being wet as well. Choice after choice after choice - his doing, but not his risks to take. In every situation when an adult is responsible for the safety of a child they need to act like it. There are mistakes and excuses he can't live with. That's horrible. But it wasn't he who died as a result - and that's worse.

@@jasonvoorhees5640every one of your comments on every thread I read are bad takes. You should look into a diagnostic test to understand why you can’t comprehend written language

Exactly what I thought

If I had a child and a terrace or balcony, I would secure that terrace or balcony in a way that make it literally impossibly for that child to fall off it even if someone let her sit on their shoulders right next to the railing. And there would still be a rule about keeping one's feet on the floor at all times when on a balcony, terrace or anything like it. It's an easy rule for a child to follow and the worst things that could happen (provided the child follows that rule) is that a.) The child hesitates sitting on a chair on a terrace because when sitting on it, her feet can't be on the floor due to her height. b.) Some people will be confused about why she insist on always keeping her feet on the floor while on balcony and give her shit for it. (Which really shouldn't happen since that rule wouldn't be in place nowhere near until she's old enough for anybody to give her shit for it.)

Oh god yes. My step sister was raised on a 13th floor apartment. Once she hit toddler/climbing stage, the rule was no open windows in the room she was in. It was constantly in the back of our minds.

I have seen SO many men do shit like this and it's disgusting how normalized it is

@@juanitaschlink2028because you come from a normal family. This guy dropped this child on purpose. This was no accident.

​@@camelopardalis84what is your experience? Actually asking

@@MemoryVague I used to work with children with mental disabilities as a volunteer. For a while, I was the leader of a group of ca. six people (including myself with the exact number depending on when exactly it was), doing that volunteer work with people who were planning on working with children professionally and went on to do so after I'd stopped volunteering with them. They saw every instance of me not being okay with something like a twelve-year-old mentally disabled child who's known for "not being able to recognise dangers" (this was written on an instruction sheet about her issues and diagnoses etc.) walking alone, about 25 to 50 metres (82 to 164 feet) behind us on a street as a sign of me being unnecessarily cautious. "Come on, nothing's going to happen *here* ! There are no cars around!" Drivers (at least where I live) tend to be *less* cautious on streets with no traffic around. Especially if normally, there are no pedestrians on the street in question. A street with no pavement that is exclusively for pedestrians, separating them from the drivers. Just every type participant in traffic - pedestrian, driver, bicycle rider, whatever - is just moving from A to B behind each other and not next to each other. The person who'd been the leader before me before he quit volunteering there was a kindergarten teacher. Whenever we were going on trips with him, it was clear that the group was walking together, with an adult in front and an adult at the back. Just a normal safety measure that was taken even in places where there literally could not be any car drivers or even bicyclists. That's just one of many, many, many examples. The other volunteers' unwillingness to follow basic safety rules (in a country where US level views on safety are seen as being massively overexaggerated and even more so back then, twenty plus years ago than today!) was presented as "simply being reasonable and not being much too afraid of all kinds of things happening at any moment". No-one ever said it, but I am sure those people accused me of having an anxiety disorder. And had the term "helicopter parent" been around already, I would have been called a "helicopter leader" or something like it.

My assumption is that it didn't even come into his mind as a possible danger. He routinely didn't wear a seatbelt or follow traffic laws. This is the kind of behaviour that he was doing with his own life, and the lack of any consequence beyond the odd traffic ticket was unconsciously feeding into a bias within him that safety precautions weren't for him. That nothing bad would happen to him. He didn't think it was a danger. He thought it would be fun for her. And I don't think he even consciously knew he had this bias that nothing bad would happen to him. I don't think he consciously cognised that seatbelts, speed limits, railings, were all there to protect and prevent things like this. He wanted it spelled out in front of him in big bold letters because he didn't even process a safety railing as a warning. Just a vague nuisance in his way to the window. It's sad that he had to learn his lesson via a child's death.

He was not her grandfather, but the family chose that narrative to try and get sympathy, shame on him and the family. It is pure privilege that the media accepted their lies and gave him a sympathetic portrayal and it's sickening, what a disgusting case and family.

Why? Daily news involving street crime, shootings, etc are much more gruesome than a story about a fall.

This is a comedy channel, but i wasn't expecting Gallagher does babies

You can't always stick your head in the sand

7:21 is a collision, you can see stuff falling in between the leftmost and center ship. But I couldn’t do any better to be fair 😂

@@insertnamehere917 , I'm certain that vessel was grounded at a breaking yard. To overcome the natural tendency of a seaman to avoid grounding and pilot a vessel in such tight quarters without apparent tugs is amazing. But I guess if that's your business it's probably boring. 😄

@@paineoftheworld that is definitely impressive! So much skill in piloting such a massive and high-inertia vessel

True, it is a gift at times. At the same time, too much anxiety could lead you to make some dumb decisions as well.

not enough, never enough, do i have enogh?

I have worked with, around and for people who've claimed that I am "overly concerned something bad could happen". Often, this was the case when I was working around children, and being responsible for them. I have been forced to be around such people for two decades by now. To make a long story very short: This has led to me seeing things like a little boy, maybe two years old, run away from his grandmother, directly towards a street and instantly thinking "No, danger! I need to step in and warn the grandmother!" followed *INSTANTLY* by a "No, you're not allowed to". That second kind of thought I never had naturally. I know it is a bad thought to have. It's far from a case of me thinking "No, if I step in now, I will be accused of being overly anxious for no good reason, therefore I just don't do anything." It's an involuntary second reaction. The first reaction is reasonable and good. The second one has been drilled into me. To say that I hate that this was done to me would be a massive understatement. If anyone's interested in hearing it, there's a second part to this.

@pardalis84thats pretty obvious one. Maybe more female thing but some men like to play around kids too, so it is beneficial to be a bit too cautious than reckless, especially with very young kids. Other case is eg construction yard where deadly dangers are around but people may downplay dangers as group. Rule of thumb about kids I heard, yes it is annoying for others that mom is like that, but it is worth pain,effort that in one case of 100 it saves kid(99 false alarms). Afterall kids take 20years and more to grow and any tiny accident could be lethal. I noticed myself and others forget danger exists if there is never false alarms(close calls in some case), so that also is good reminder to keep sharp. Second insidious part is, if everyone downplay that trait, it makes anxiousness even bigger. It may have some real reason behind it, thus keeping it repeating. (for minimum other people not trusting you adds to stresslevel, which alone raises anxiousness as normal thing... it is good for someone not being anxious but too much that stress may push person "over border" to some serious illness)

I was thinking the same thing. I could never imagine even imagining doing what he did without thinking of her falling and wanting to puke. Considering his constant recklessness, I wonder if he's got a smaller frontal lobe than most or something.

I am 6 minutes in and immediately asking this question 🤔

The footage which shows Anello at Deck 11 does not show him drinking anything and even then, this is an irrelevancy. Whether drunk or sober, he was proven beyond all doubt that he was not a responsible man. In fact, Anello himself ADMITTED HIS OWN GUILT FROM THE START, the only reason why he said what he said to the media was primarily because he was never interviewed by the mainstream media in the Mainland United States before in his life. And of course, the media sided with the Wiegand family purely for monetary reasons, because a "small town family faces off a massive, multinational corporation that operates in an industry that is historically corrupt and negligent" is a nice narrative to ride with, especially since this was taking before the Hong Kong riots in August 2019 and the reports in Wuhan in November 2019, the World Cup ended a year before Chloe's death, meaning that it was a very slow month for the news.

Indeed.

All whilst the company that owns the ships are getting grants for the ecological dismantling of them.

Workers at the aliaga shipyard make significantly more than the average salary in turkey

@@timothyabbott8537 They barely make a living wage and I'm sure figuring in the horribly unsafe working conditions and the toxic substances they come into contact with, I'm sure what relatively extra they get is worth it, right?

It was child proof. No child could have climbed up there and jumped out that window on their own.

We are not owed or deserving of "nice things" or "cool things" and the same is true of the inverse. Responsibility is relative for a reason because we are NOT a hivemind. People do a lot of retarded shit all the time, I've done it, you've done it. And most of the time, we get away with it scott-free. As is the way of LIFE, sometimes, we DON'T get away with it and die or get severely or minorly injured as a result of our actions.

lol why? This is one of the least gruesome things I've heard/seen. Daily crime news with street violence are far more stomach churning than this. Are you sheltered?

The grandfather's name sounded like a joke, too. It sounded like "Sam Anelo". Like salmonella, lol.

Someone has definitely written a vampire fanfic using that name

Working for a cruise liner does suggest villiany.

I think you mean "microwave manuals".

​And to think, the comment is already edited and still includes that bit.

@@HOTD108_ Auto-correct has screwed me over over the span of several edits myself, so I can easily imagine that's what happened here.

Microwave animals tell you not to stuff animals inside them? That's new to me.

Fun fact: there is apparently a brand of stuffed animals called Warm Buddies that you’re supposed to stick in the microwave. They’re actually heating pads for kids with chronic pain.

I agree. I don't think the company is at fault or to blame, but I think there is some liability (5 or 10% at most) based on the design and lack of supervision.
