Timeline

1960

Dianne Elizabeth Brimble (10 April 1960 – 24 September 2002) died aboard a P&O Cruises cruise ship of a drug overdose.

She is alleged to have been neglected and received callous treatment at the hands of passengers, and to have been given the drug without her knowledge or consent.

The investigation into her death has resulted in widespread media coverage in Australia, and criticism of both party culture aboard cruise ships and of the investigation immediately following Brimble's death.

2002

Brimble, a 42-year-old mother of three from Brisbane, died within 24 hours of boarding the P&O Cruises cruise ship Pacific Sky on 23 September 2002, apparently due to ingesting a combination of alcohol and an overdose of the drug gamma-hydroxybutyrate, otherwise known as "GHB" or "fantasy".

According to news reports, security staff on the cruise ship were initially told Brimble had died of a heart attack, but there were suspicious circumstances.

Toxicology reports later revealed that the amount of the sedative drug in her system was three times the amount that a recreational user would have used.

Her body was found on the floor of cabin D182, which belonged to four of the men whom she had met at the ship's disco the previous night.

Newspaper reports initially gave differing accounts as to whether Brimble was partially clothed or unclothed when she was found dead.

Eight men from Adelaide, South Australia, who were travelling companions on the ship had been named by police investigators as "persons of interest" in the case.

An inquest was ordered and the eight men, Dragan Losic, Mark Wilhelm, Petar Pantic, Letterio "Leo" Silvestri, Luigi Vitale, Matthew Slade, Ryan Kuchel and Sakelarios "Charlie" Kambouris were subpoenaed to appear.

2006

The inquest began in March 2006.

An attempt by Wilhelm's attorney to challenge the inquest was rejected, and Wilhelm was ordered by Deputy State Coroner Jacqueline Milledge to appear when called.

Mark Brimble, the ex-husband of Dianne Brimble, represented the family at the inquest and asked questions of witnesses.

Other Pacific Sky passengers and personnel had already made statements.

The memory stick from a camera owned by one of the men, "Charlie" Kambouris, which was handed in as lost property, had been stolen by a P&O employee who later turned it over to police once he realised that pictures of Brimble and the men of interest were on it.

The camera's memory stick had been reformatted but computer forensic experts were able to retrieve more than 150 deleted pictures from it, and consequently found evidence important to the case.

The photographs have not been released to the media because they depict sexual activity and are considered too graphic.

Wilhelm claimed that the sex was consensual, and several photographs appear to support this.

Other photographs allegedly showed Brimble later, lying naked on the floor of the cabin, having lost control of her bodily functions.

According to several witnesses' testimonies, the men had spent most of the time on the cruise allegedly propositioning a number of female passengers of varying ages.

Among numerous acts of alleged sexual harassment were: asking a 15-year-old to do an erotic dance in their cabin for cash, entering the cabin of four girls uninvited, asking if they were going to the disco where they 'could go down on them' and in a later encounter, Silvestri asking one woman if he could perform oral sex on her, among others.

The inquest heard the initial interview that Silvestri had given police in New Caledonia.

The interview was conducted two days after Brimble's death.

At that time, Silvestri denied any involvement with Brimble.

During the interview, however, Silvestri spoke of Brimble in disparaging terms, saying "she smelt, she was black and she was ugly."

Silvestri also described her as "desperate", "a yuck-ugly dog" and a "fat thing."

Silvestri told the police interviewers that he was angry because Brimble "fucked up his holiday" by dying in his cabin.

According to police witness statements, Silvestri allegedly said to another cruise passenger, Allison McKain, that "The bitch is dead, the fucking bitch is dead. Some shit went down last night, some top secret shit," and that a woman had died, naked on the floor of their cabin.

Several passengers related how Silvestri had told them that the group had considered throwing Brimble overboard.

At least ten passengers saw Brimble, having lost control of her bodily functions, lying unconscious and naked on the cabin floor, including several women Wilhelm specifically invited into the cabin to see her in that state.

When the group realised something was wrong they washed and dressed Brimble before calling for help.

Later, when medical officers attempted to resuscitate Brimble, Silvestri told the ship's purser to "get the bitch out of my room."

Silvestri told the coronial court that Kuchel told him that Wilhelm had given Brimble the drug, and that she took it willingly with full informed consent.

However, Wilhelm had written in a signed statement given to a P&O security chief that he had not given any drugs to anyone.

In previous testimony given in March, Counsel assisting the coroner, Ron Hoenig, described Brimble as being "preyed upon" and asserted that she was impaired in such a way that she could not have given informed consent.

At the first inquest in March, Hoenig read statements from family and friends of Brimble, citing that she was a "very moral woman" who did not approve of taking drugs or of casual sex.

Both Mark Brimble and David Mitchell, her partner of 14 years, gave evidence to the court pertaining to Dianne Brimble's character.

However, evidence was tendered by Brimble's doctor that she had recently been prescribed the morning-after pill and had previously had an HIV test following an indiscretion.

In addition, the recovered photographs showed Brimble fully conscious having sex with Wilhelm.

Police tapped the telephones of the eight named "men of interest" for six months.
