Murder on a Cruise on Channel 7 and 7plus – In May 2006, 52-year-old Micki Kanesaki started the holiday of a lifetime, a week-long Mediterranean cruise with her ex-husband, Lonnie Kocontes.
The trip was a special gift from Lonnie to mark a new chapter in their recently rekindled relationship. But just a day into the trip, Lonnie awoke to find Micki missing. After a frantic search across the ship, he alerted the crew, but Micki was nowhere to be seen.
Just 36 hours later, her body was discovered off the southern coast of Italy. When an autopsy revealed several suspicious details, investigators began questioning the circumstances of her death and their attention quickly turned to her ex-husband and travel partner.
With no CCTV footage and no forensic evidence, what followed was an investigation spanning multiple agencies and jurisdictions. What really happened to Micki? This brand-new 2-part documentary lifts the lid on an extraordinary story of infidelity, money and death threats – spanning more than 14 years. With access to Micki’s family, senior FBI investigators and those closest to the case; this is Murder on a Cruise.
