He told me every employee knows that they are being filmed, and that they are reminded of this daily. He also told me that this happens more fequently that one would suspect, and there are standard operating procedures dictated by training manuals overviewed by experts. The "witness" reports in the media contradict the security video. She was talked to by security before they "took her down", and she was dead long before her husband called the airport. Never trust media interviews when a security tape is available. If there is any blame, it comes from her actions and the lack of action by her family. I am sick and tired of people in this country blaming everyone but themselves. My father was an alcoholic, and everytime he beat me or my mother I didn't excuse it with "he has an illness, he needs help, he's not responsible for his actions because he's sick". When a drunk driver (most of whom are addicts) kills themselves or someone else, we don't sue the manufacturing or car company, we place the blame where it belongs. After all is said and done, it comes down to this. She was an adult that choose to get drunk, become belligerent, and stupidly killed herself to no ones fault but her own.
