American Airlines admits mistake after it blames Texas girl for being filmed in airplane bathroom

Fort Worth-based American Airlines says “an error” was made in a court filing this week that blamed a 9-year-old girl for allegedly being secretly recorded.

You blame the people you’re supposed to protect especially the children? What’s wrong with this company?!

"Mistake"???

[@mitchellquartero]

a mistake? What a pathetic move.

I'm a female senior citizen and I do not know about cameras in the airline restrooms. In fact, this is the first time I've heard about this invasion of privacy, especially young girls. American Airlines, what are you thinking?!

I proudly worked for this company for just under 34 years. This DISGUSTS me beyond belief. AA FIRE that lawyer! Flight Attendant too.

The law firmed has been replaced and the flight attendant was fired.

@@BruceMilpitas Good to hear! If that F/A wasn’t fired he’d be forced to resign, the treatment he’d receive from other crew members unbearable. I saw this happen to another female flight attendant many years ago who falsely accused an entire group of pilots and flight attendants of drinking on the job just to “get back” at a guy who broke off a relationship with her. She was willing to take down the entire crew just to “stick it” to one guy. She was pulled off the line into an administrative position but was still treated so poorly (deservedly so) she eventually resigned.

@@767driver4 Don’t you think the flight attendant who lied should had been fired?

[@767driver4]

@@BruceMilpitas Absolutely! But it was a “he said - she said” debacle. AA security got involved and the accused were eventually exonerated due to lack of evidence. Very messy situation she created for all involved. I flew with one of the pilots involved a year or so later. Actually HE was the one she was targeting. She was a total psycho woman and fortunately the company, after much investigation, concluded it was all bogus. By this time she was already gone, her name smeared forever just like this guys name is.

lol AA should have known not to use slimy lawyers (:
