It really winds me up when they do that too much in articles. They’ll start throwing in phrases like “the singer” after they have used their name once and then “entertainer” and then “Mancunian” if they’re from Manchester and then it gets ridiculous with something like “the crooner”.

That same article also says

"However, Agnieszka Zembrzycka, a Stena Line spokesperson, told Polish media on Friday that the CCTV footage from the ship did not match this version of events."

As in CCTV footage doesn't show a kid accidentally falling in followed by a mother.

Further it was noted by first responders that the woman was unresponsive. No mention on the status of the boy other then both were flown to a hospital. Meaning the boy was either already dead, or was responsive.

My guess is from the context a murder investigation is highly warranted, and the CCTV footage will provide valuable information.

Form the article you linked:

According to initial media reports, a child had fallen into the sea and the woman had jumped in after him. However, Agnieszka Zembrzycka, a Stena Line spokesperson, told Polish media on Friday that the CCTV footage from the ship did not match this version of events.

Really sad case. Best wait and see how it develops as opposed to making guesses at this time.

It is being reported in Denmark that its being investigated as a murder-suicide.

It was not an accident but a deliberate act, the Danish accident commission stated, which is now closing its investigation into the deaths from the Polen ferry.

• We have installed surveillance footage, says investigator Morten Frederiksen to SVT.
  A seven-year-old boy and his mother died after they both ended up in the water while on the way by ferry to Karlskrona from Gdynia.
  At first an accident was suspected - but it is now dismissed by the Danish accident commission.

After its investigation, the Danish investigation states that it is instead a matter of deliberate handling, reports P4 Blekinge.

• It is correct, because we have now put surveillance footage that it was not an accident but a deliberate handling. Therefore, the police are taking over the case for the time being, says Morten Frederiksen, investigator at the Danish accident commission to SVT Blekinge.

Investigated as murder
It was on Thursday last week that the incident occurred. The deceased are Polish citizens and the ferry was on its way to Karlskrona from Poland.
Prosecutor Marie Lindström in Karlskrona has already started a preliminary investigation into murder. At the same time, the prosecutor's office in Gdansk has opened an investigation into murder and suicide, according to the Polish television station Tvn24.

The ferry Stena Spirit, which sails under the Danish flag, is registered in Denmark and is therefore being investigated by the Danish accident commission.

The article says

In a brief statement Friday, Sweden’s Prosecution Authority said it has launched ”a preliminary investigation where the crime classification is murder, but there is no suspect in the case.”

Maybe that is what the person meant or referrence

You underestimate how dumb kids are lol

so yes.

You can't really say that when you don't fucking know. It's being investigated to find out if the answer is yes.

Hello, just wanted to give a friendly suggestion to use terms like "wheelchair user" or "person who uses a wheelchair" instead of "wheelchair bound" or "confined to a wheelchair". There are many articles explaining why in more detail for those wanting to know.
