The FBI is investigating the mysterious death of an American woman aboard a cruise ship in the Caribbean. Fifty-two-year-old Almarosa Tenorio died Tuesday morning after reportedly plunging from the upper deck of a Royal Princess cruise ship. It was heading to Aruba from Fort Lauderdale. Aruba based media report a man was seen choking the woman before the fall, and her death is being treated as a possible homicide. Investigators are still working to determine how she plummeted 14 stories - onto a lifeboat. The Royal Princess has 19 decks. Its SeaWalk promenade, on the 16th deck, is 128 feet above the ocean. The ship - flagship of the Princess line - departed Nov. 9 from Port Everglades on a 7-day Southern Caribbean cruise. It returned to Fort Lauderdale on Saturday. It's capacity is 3,600 passengers.
