American Airlines has distanced itself from a court filing in which the carrier said a 9-year-old girl should have noticed there was a camera taped to the seat of an airplane lavatory.
A former flight attendant is accused of luring girls to use the lavatory after taping his iPhone to the toilet seat. The 9-year-old’s family flew from Texas to California on American last year and sued the airline after the FBI told them that videos of the girl were found on the flight attendant’s phone.
In response to the lawsuit, American said in a court document that it would dispute the family’s claim by showing that any injuries the 9-year-old girl suffered were caused by the girl’s “own fault and negligence, were proximately caused by (her) use of the compromised lavatory, which she knew or should have known contained a visible and illuminated recording device.”
An American spokesperson said Thursday that outside lawyers working for the company “made an error in this filing.”
Victim blaming if I ever saw one.
Not my intention to defend the pedo, but how in the fuck someone do something like “taping his iPhone to the toilet”, people are so fucking dumb, if someone it’s doing something illegal at least they should be smart.
The smart ones don’t get caught.
Not exactly but let’s be honest, his dumbness level it’s astonishing…
