Not saying it didn't happen...not saying she is a pawn in her lawyers game...but when things get to this stage, $$$ involved, and the fact that this wasn't a criminal case (aka no money in that) it's hard to separate the wheat from the chaff....and everyone (on both sides) will say anything to help their case.
The woman seems less after money than blood. She gave them a month's warning to terminate the guy or face a public lawsuit. Perhaps they thought she was bluffing? And just from the comments on here, you know the captain's friends and supporters are going to harass her about "getting the captain in trouble" when she returns to flying the line, which will undoubtedly give her even MORE cause for action against the company. The union too, if they aren't careful.
How difficult is it for a senior captain to understand that you don't cr@p in your own nest?
