American Airlines, facing lawsuits after a flight attendant allegedly filmed girls using plane bathrooms, is blaming a 9-year-old girl for being secretly...
An attorney for the child’s family says the company’s assertion that the girl should have known the toilet contained a camera is “shocking and outrageous” and “a new low.”
The airline in a new court filing is arguing that the young girl should have known that the airplane toilet contained a recording device. During the flight last year, she was secretly filmed while using the airplane toilet, according to the family’s lawsuit against American Airlines. The family is arguing that the airline knew or should have known that Thompson “was a danger.”The family and their attorneys were shocked by this recent court filing from American Airlines.
Attorney Paul Llewellyn, a partner at Lewis & Llewellyn LLP, said: “To blame a 9-year-old for being filmed while using the airplane bathroom is both shocking and outrageous. In my opinion, this is a depraved legal strategy that sinks to a new low. American Airlines should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.”
