Air travel.
If your plane isn’t broken, maybe those that run the company are.
Barbara Morgan says American Airlines victim-blamed her after a known serial groper attacked her.
His name is Cherian Abraham. Is that French?
This occurred on April 24, 2024 flight from San Francisco to Dallas.
She alleges the airline refused to help despite the assailant’s history of targeting women on red-eye trips.
Morgan claims American Airlines let him keep boarding flights and assaulting more victims.
She’s now suing in Northern District of California for their inaction and negligence.
Let’s pray she gets piles of money and does some real damage to America Airlines.
New York Post reports:
A California mom claims American Airlines “victim-blamed” her and refused to help after she was sexually assaulted by a known serial airplane groper, according to a new lawsuit.
Barbara Morgan said she was sexually assaulted on April 24, 2024, by Cherian Abraham, 55, during a flight from San Francisco to Dallas, according to the lawsuit filed in the US District Court for the Northern District of California.
Morgan alleges that despite Abraham being a known risk to women on red-eye flights — overnight trips where the cabin is dark — American Airlines allowed him to continue flying and assault more women, NBC News reported.
“American’s decisions and actions directly led to her sexual assault, and then further traumatized her by ignoring her complaints after the attack,” her attorneys at Romanucci & Blandin said Wednesday.
“American Airlines allowed this predator to fly and to assault another woman after Barbara Morgan, until the FBI stepped in, and he was criminally charged.”
Morgan’s lawyers say she froze in the face of the trauma as no one came to her aid, with the horrified woman seeking help after the plane landed.
American Airlines allegedly dismissed Morgan on multiple occasions, “victim-blaming” her and telling her that she shouldn’t have waited to get help, the lawsuit states.

I wonder why they ignored the sexual assault of this White woman?
I tried to find an image of Cherian Abraham but was unable to narrow it down.
Though other “Cherian Abraham” do seem to share a similar trait…
One can only wonder why America Airlines turned a blind eye.
And this isn’t the first time AA has blamed the victim.
