The yacht tended to the right and obviously the bodies tried to go to the other side and take refuge in their cabins. We found five bodies in a cabin on the left and another one in the third cabin on the left. They were in the higher part of the shipwreck.
Prosecutors say they have opened a manslaughter investigation following the sinking. Ambrogio Cartosio, the head of the public prosecutor's office of Termini Imerese, said he was investigating a crime hypothesis of culpable shipwreck and manslaughter.
Mike Lynch, the founder of Autonomy, and his 18-year-old daughter Hannah were among seven people confirmed to have died in the incident. Lynch was on the yacht with friends and family celebrating his recent acquittal in a fraud trial.
A chef on the yacht, Recaldo Thomas, was the only crewmember to have died in the incident.
