Costa Concordia appeal: Schettino sentenced to 16 years and one month in jail

Description

In Italy the appeal trial has started for the captain held responsible for 2012's Costa Concordia cruise ship disaster. Francesco Schettino was sentenced in February last year to 16 years in jail but while his defense argues that the blame for the disaster should be shared, the prosecution wants a longer prison term.
