Flight attendant indicted in attempt to record teen girl in airplane bathroom
An American Airlines flight attendant has been indicted after authorities say he tried to secretly video record a 14-year-old girl using an airplane bathroom.
An American Airlines flight attendant was indicted Thursday after authorities said he tried to secretly record video of a 14-year-old girl using an airplane bathroom last September.
Police have also alleged that Estes Carter Thompson III, 36, of Charlotte, North Carolina, had recordings of four other girls using lavatories on an aircraft where he worked.
Thompson was indicted on one count of attempted sexual exploitation of children and one count of possession of images of child sexual abuse depicting a prepubescent minor.
Thompson was charged and arrested in January 2024 in Lynchburg, Virginia. He has been in federal custody since. A lawyer for Thompson said after the indictment by a federal grand jury that he was unable to comment.

I was expecting it to be at least a little subtle. I don't know how the heck you tape an iPhone to the seat and don't have the next person to enter the bathroom go "what the heck?"
Evidently he got away with this before though...?! I'm just so confused.
I don't even understand the motivation. Are there not enough videos of women pissing and shitting on the internet for you so you have to take this kind of stupid risk even if you are subtle?"
Yeah, honestly ... this is just brain dead.
Yeah I just can’t visualise how you’d fucking tape an iPhone to a toilet seat what is even going on at that point
WTF.
It's was so ridiculous looking! I thought it was a joke because it's so incredibly obvious.
Is there a picture of the phone under the seat?
