American Airlines has distanced itself from a court filing where they blamed a 9-year-old girl for not noticing a hidden camera taped to an airplane lavatory seat. The incident involved a former flight attendant accused of secretly recording girls using the lavatory by taping his iPhone to the toilet seat. Following backlash, American Airlines clarified that they do not believe the child was at fault and take the allegations against the former employee seriously. The flight attendant, Estes Carter Thompson III, has pleaded not guilty to attempted sexual exploitation of children and possession of images of child sexual abuse. Thompson faces serious charges and is set to appear in federal court in Boston in July.
