Princess purser pleads guilty to stealing $400K from the ship's safe
In a follow-up to our earlier cruise blog entry, former Sapphire Princess Chief Purser Elisha Cuffe has pled guilty to theft in Ketchikan (Alaska) District Court and been sentenced to four months in jail.
The 32-year-old Australian was arrested in August after being found with over $400,000 money from the ship's vault in her cabin, in a cardboard box at the end of her bed. Cuffe, whose Australian passport had expired, will be deported back to Australia following her stay in Ketchikan jail. She could have faced up to five years in prison.
Princess Cruises is one of the leaders in Alaska cruising. The 2760-passenger Sapphire Princess is one of nine Princess ships that sail Alaskan waters each year from May to September.
