    How exactly is one supposed to just know someone’s a criminal? And what do they think the flight attendants job description is?

    Throw the guy in jail, terrible it happened. But I dont see how they’re gonna get anywhere in that lawsuit

        Innocent until proven guilty only applies in the courts. For everywhere else, it seems to be guilty until proven innocent, and sometimes still guilty despite proof.

          That’s because most people are complete fucking morons.

          It’s nothing something we should ever remain silent on and let be acceptable.

            So you’d be totally ok letting someone, who you’ve seen on video beating a child, babysit for you? After all, innocent until proven guilty

        The whole point of the lawsuit is that they couldn’t find evidence because the other flight attendants gave him his phone back after he’d been caught. They’re suing because he committed an obvious offense against a minor, and the employees didn’t take the accusation seriously enough not to let evidence get destroyed.

        The criminal case may be a lost cause now, but the evidence we do have is pretty damning and does warrant a lawsuit against the company that enabled what happened.
