Michael Virgil's family and fiancée Connie Aguilar filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Royal Caribbean after his death on the Navigator of the Seas, alleging he was overserved 33 alcoholic beverages and subsequently restrained by crew members.The lawsuit claims crew used excessive force, including pepper spray and a sedative injection, with multiple individuals applying their weight to Virgil for several minutes, leading the Los Angeles County medical examiner to rule mechanical asphyxiation as a homicide.The family, represented by
Kevin Haynes, stated they were forced to remain on board while Virgil's body was refrigerated, as the
FBI continues its investigation into the incident.
