Officials have not yet identified the remains, NBC News reports, but a spokeswoman said it was “assumed to be the last victim, Russel Rebello,” an Indian man who had served as a waiter on the doomed vessel. Thirty-two people died on Jan. 13, 2012, after the _Costa Concordia_ ran aground in a shallow bay near the island of Giglio and listed sideways into the water. The wreckage, weighing in at 114,500 tons, was later right-sided and towed to Genoa for scrap. \[[_NBC News_](http://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/italy-corpse-found-costa-concordia-wreck-assumed-be-russel-rebello-n239981 "undefined")\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3554633/costa-concordia-ship-wreckage/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3554633/costa-concordia-ship-wreckage/"},"headline":"'Last' Victim Thought to Be Found From Costa Concordia","datePublished":"2014-11-03T17:57:35.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T11:11:06.937Z","description":"An Indian man who had served as a waiter","url":"https://time.com/3554633/costa-concordia-ship-wreckage/","keywords":["Accident","Italy","shipwreck","ship"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt11bf7f7c2db454e8/698763e3e20a877534a82cb4/452771800.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Dan Kedmey","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/dan-kedmey/"}],"articleSection":"World","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt11bf7f7c2db454e8/698763e3e20a877534a82cb4/452771800.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"ITALY-SHIPPING-TOURISM-DISASTER-SALVAGE","caption":"ITALY-SHIPPING-TOURISM-DISASTER-SALVAGE","creditText":"GIUSEPPE CACACE—AFP/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/world/","name":"World"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3554633/costa-concordia-ship-wreckage/","name":"'Last' Victim Thought to Be Found From Costa Concordia"}}]}] ```
