A passenger from the stricken Triumph cruise ship has
sued Carnival Corp over "horrifying" conditions, including
being forced to wade through human feces from overflowing
toilets after power was knocked out by a fire.
The lawsuit by Cassie Terry of Brazoria County, Texas,
alleged Carnival failed to provide a seaworthy vessel and
sanitary conditions, according to court documents.
Terry suffered physical and emotional harm, including
anxiety, nervousness and the loss of the enjoyment of life,
according to the complaint filed in federal court in Miami.
