The Enduring Mystery of Amy Bradley's Disappearance
The primary source is an excerpt from a U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation hearing focusing on the oversight of the cruise industry and the need for stronger consumer protection, particularly following recent incidents and accidents. This governmental document includes testimony from industry leaders, the U.S. Coast Guard, and maritime safety experts, addressing issues like cruise ship safety, crime reporting transparency under the Cruise Vessel Security and Safety Act (CVSSA), and the enforceability of the industry's self-imposed Passenger Bill of Rights. Data presented highlights a significant discrepancy between crimes reported to the FBI and those made public by the Coast Guard, and much discussion revolves around liability limitations for medical care and the frequency of mechanical failures and accidents aboard cruise ships. The second source is a brief, irrelevant Wikipedia entry for the disappearance of Amy Lynn Bradley, which offers no substantive information to the hearing's focus.
