An NFL player said he was sexually harassed and assaulted by a female passenger on a United Airlines flight and accused two flight attendants of failing to properly respond to his complaints.
John Doe 2 helped the woman put her bag in the overhead bin and as the woman took her seat she allegedly began harassing John Doe 1, who was in the middle seat and wearing a face mask because of the coronavirus pandemic.
John Doe 1"respectfully responded that he was not sick and was being proactive, especially in wake of the growing COVID-19 concerns at that time." John Doe 2, who was in an aisle seat, complained twice to a flight attendant, according to the lawsuit, but the attendant did not take action. After John Doe 1 asked a second flight attendant for help, the woman was given a verbal warning.
John Doe 1 jumped up from his seat and went to find a flight attendant. The woman then moved to the middle seat and grabbed John Doe 2's leg and groin area, according to the lawsuit.
