A flight attendant who secretly filmed young girls by taping his phone to an aeroplane toilet has been given a near two-decade prison sentence.
Estes Carter Thompson III, formerly of American Airlines, received 18.5 years behind bars, followed by five years of supervised release. Boston U.S. District Court Judge Julia Kobick condemned his actions as "appalling", stating that the child victims’ "innocence has been lost" due to his behaviour.
