Whatever lawyer or lawyers thought “blame the victimized child” was a good defense strategy need to be disbarred.
“Look, Boeing offed a whistle blower. We can’t do worse than that, right?”
Two so far. No closet is deep enough to bury that many skeletons. The first few murders are to slow further whistleblowers, it’s just business to Boeing.
Sorry, but If my employer asked me to defend a p3do and blame a 9-yo instead, I might just have to take that golden parachute. There are plenty of other high-paying corporate law positions out there.

That’s my least favourite Star Wars character, too
Ehh, not far from the standard defense strategy of blaming a rape victim. Personally, I’d like to see victim blaming thrown out of a courtroom/law and any attorney that tries it to be at the very least reprimanded for it and at most sanctioned like fined or disbarred. All attacking victims do is prevent people coming forward and it keep criminals free.
Essentially:
We did don’t know this would become a public interest story in national media
It wasn’t an accident, it was the boilerplate answer corporate lawyers always give.
My god how dumb and lazy is this man? Taping a phone to a toilet?
It apparently worked multiple times until he got caught according to the article.
My question is- I’m not going to look, but with the vast amount of porn on the internet, I’m sure you can find toilet cam pissing and shitting porn. Why take this sort of risk?
Since the girl in the story that surfaced this whole thing was 14, I think
girl, 9
might be a clue.
I guess yeah. A pedo into hidden cam pictures of girls pissing and shitting. Like I don’t understand pedophilia to begin with, but this is a whole new level of what the fuck is wrong with this person?
im so glad that this picture exists, because this man will NEVER fucking live this down.
Not only did he commit a heinous crime, but he’s also a fucking dumbass.
Also, i’m shocked they didn’t immediately settle this case. You would think doing anything other than immediately settling this would be corporate suicide.
When has there been anything resembling judicial corporate death in the last 10 years
It sounds like it’s their insurance company that is handling the thing and their first action was to fight instead of settle. If AA really wanted to send the right message to the public with this announced backtracking, they’d have announced that they’d just dropped their previous insurance company in favor of one that’s not completely insane.
the ONLY reason i can assume the started fighting this, was because they didn’t know about the image.
Big fucking mistake it turns out. The only reason i mention settlements is because they’re privately settled and often give people fuck tons of money. The dude would’ve be arrested anyway, so it’s only good PR at the end of the day, since now they likely would have an NDA, but apparently whoever is working for them is a little fucking stupid.
Imagine being the first person that lawyer pitched his idea to and not responding violently.
I like to think for something as high stakes as the argument you’re going to make in court that a lawyer would have partners or employees or something to bounce ideas off before pulling the proverbial trigger on it.
Edit: oh and discussing such things with the client too
