American Airlines Replaces Law Firm After Blaming Child for Restroom Camera Incident

TL;DR
American Airlines has replaced the Wilson Elser law firm after it controversially claimed a 9-year-old girl was negligent for not noticing a camera phone taped to an airplane lavatory seat. The airline is now represented by Kelly Hart & Hallman. The change follows a lawsuit filed by the girl's family after videos of her were found on a former flight attendant's phone. The flight attendant, who has been fired, faces charges of attempted sexual exploitation of children.
