Reports state that the boat was hit by a strong wave on September 29 and sank as a result of the passengers’ combined weight.
According to reports, Maritime Firefighters found Beatriz’s corpse first, having found it floating in the ocean.
But it wasn’t until a week later that Aline’s corpse washed ashore on Itaquitanduva Beach that it was discovered.
Investigators are now investigating if this unfortunate event might have been prevented.
Commissioner Alfino said, “All this is being determined very calmly to conclude if the fatalities were based on recklessness or negligence.”
Aline, who couldn’t swim, was a mother to a little kid. The boat that would eventually drown was the location of her last social media post.
