BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
The reason you hire outside counsel is to make sure something like this is not whitewashed. She has the obligation not to talk to anyone outside Alaska about the report, but if you read anything about this lady, whitewash is the last thing she would be associated with. In Trumps' terms, she's a killer and has a rep for it. I guarantee you she told Alaska everything she found. In today's environment, companies have to be very careful about this stuff. I guarantee Alaska has dotted the i's and crossed all the t's on this. Their hiring of this attorney tells you that. If this attorney found evidence of assault, drugging, and rape this Captain would be gone simply because from the companies standpoint, all the bad publicity, suits, and grief just aren't worth it anymore. Far easier just to be rid of the problem (in this case the Captain).
