While CBP has arrested and charged several cruise ship employees for child pornography in targeted operations earlier this year and last year, advocates say these cases in recent months have been different.
For Maria, being a room attendant on a cruise ship was a perfect job.
Marcelo Morales, one of those former crew members, told the Business Mirror that CBP agents boarded the Sunshine on May 30.
Morales was one of nine crew members arrested, held in detention, and then put on a flight back to Manila.
Victory Cruise Lines did not respond to a request for comment.
