My neighbor died while on a cruise . They were off the coast of Ireland. Her body was taken to a morgue where an autopsy was performed.
Her bereaved husband checked into a motel and made arrangements to have her body returned to the states. The authorities made him stay in the country for two weeks, until all of the results of the autopsy were in. At that time he flew home, with her body.
It seems it’s not uncommon for disgruntled husbands to “off” their spouse on a cruise ship.
So some countries won’t release the body or the spouse, until all questions are answered.
When you get past the emotional shock of such a tragedy, I’m sure there were big financial repercussions as well
