Flight Attendant Who Filmed Girls in Airplane Lavatory with Hidden Phone Sentenced to 18.5 Years
A flight attendant accused of taping his phone to the airplane toilet's lid to film young girls has been sentenced to 18 and a half years in prison, followed by five years of supervised release. Former American Airlines flight attendant Estes Carter Thompson III was arrested and charged with one count of attempted sexual exploitation of children and one count of possession of child pornography depicting a prepubescent minor in 2024. He was arrested in Lynchburg, Va., in January 2024, and plead guilty to the charges in March. He was sentenced in Boston on Wednesday, July 23. Police alleged he had recordings of a 14-year-old and four other girls ages 7, 9, 11, and 14, that were recorded over a nine-month period, The Associated Press reports. AI-generated child sexual abuse images and more than 50 images of a 9-year-old girl who was flying as an unaccompanied minor were also discovered on his iCloud account, reports. His setup, which involved concealing his iPhone beneath a warning sticker that read "seat broken" on the plane's toilet, was discovered by a 14-year-old girl on a flight bound for Boston on Sept. 2, 2023. She snapped a photo of the setup and showed her father, who confronted Thompson. Boston U.S. District Court Judge Julia Kobick called his behavior "appalling" and said child victims' "innocence has been lost" because of his actions. Thompson apologized in court Wednesday, describing his actions as "selfish, perverse and wrong." Thompson, 37, a resident of Charlotte, N.C., was arrested in 2024 after authorities said a 14-year-old girl on his flight discovered his secret recording setup in the bathroom. 'We take these allegations very seriously. They do not reflect our airline or our core mission of caring for people,' the airline said in a statement at the time, per NBC News. Thompson will serve his sentence at FMC Butner in North Carolina and intends to undergo sex offender-specific treatment, the outlet reports. Want to keep up with the latest crime coverage?

American Airlines still faces a civil lawsuit in Texas from the family of one of Thompson's victims. Paul Llewellyn, whose law firm Lewis & Llewellyn is representing the child's family, told 'We are pleased that the perpetrator has been sentenced to a lengthy prison term so that he can no longer prey on young girls." Llewellyn's statement continued, 'But no family should ever have to endure what these families have gone through.' Read the original article on People

Indonesia arrests 2 foreigners for smuggling cocaine to Bali
DENPASAR, Indonesia (AP) — Indonesian authorities said Thursday they have arrested two foreigners accused of smuggling cocaine to the tourist island of Bali. A Brazilian man and a South African woman were arrested separately on July 13 after customs officers at Bali's international airport saw suspicious items in the man's luggage and the woman's underwear on X-ray scans. Indonesia has extremely strict drug laws, and convicted smugglers are sometimes executed by firing squad. The 25-year-old Brazilian man, who police identified by his initials as YB, was arrested with 3,086.36 grams (6.8 pounds) of cocaine in the lining of his suitcase and backpack shortly after he arrived at the airport from Dubai, said Made Sinar Subawa, head of the Eradication Division at Bali's Narcotic Agency. The same day, customs officers caught a 32-year-old South African woman, identified as LN, and seized 990.83 grams (2.1 pounds) of cocaine she in her underwear, Subawa said. During interrogation, YB said that he was promised 400 million rupiah ($2,450) to hand the cocaine he obtained in Brasilia to a man he called as Tio Paulo, while LN expected to get 25 million rupiah ($1,500) after deliver the drugs to someone she identified as Cindy, according to Subawa. Subawa said a police operation failed to catch the two people named by the suspects, whom police believee are low-level distributors. Authorities presented the suspects wearing orange prison uniforms and masks, with their hands handcuffed, at a news conference in Denpasar, the capital, along with the cocaine they were found with. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime says Indonesia is a major drug-smuggling hub despite having some of the strictest drug laws in the world, in part because international drug syndicates target its young population. The Denpasar District Court later Thursday is set to sentence two other groups of foreigners on drug charges. Verdicts for an Argentine woman and a British man who were accused of smuggling cocaine onto the island, and for drug offense against a group of three British nationals, including a woman, are expected to be read out separately at the same court. About 530 people are on death row in Indonesia, mostly for drug-related crimes, including 96 foreigners, the Ministry of Immigration and Corrections' data showed. Indonesia's last executions, of a citizen and three foreigners, were carried out in July 2016.

Berkeley closer to installing Flock surveillance cameras throughout the city
Berkeley could soon be getting at least 16 surveillance cameras installed throughout the city after the plan cleared another hurdle in a late-night Tuesday vote. In an 8-1 vote, city council approved the Surveillance Acquisition Report, which will let the Berkeley Police Department move forward with the contract work with Flock Safety and the implementation of the video cameras. The Flock cameras will capture live video but not audio, and will not have facial recognition, according to the report. Arlo Malmberg, the department's strategic planning and accountability manager, said that the cameras will not send any alerts to police, and Police Chief Jen Louis added that live video will not be monitored unless it is to confirm reports of an ongoing crime, such as an active shooter incident. The cameras will be in locations where there is pedestrian activity to avoid overlap with the city's automated license plate readers, the report states. While both the cameras and ALPRs are through Flock, the systems will not communicate or be integrated with each other, Malmberg said. According to the report, the cameras will be at the following locations. Other possible locations, if there is enough funding, include Ashby and Domingo avenues, Ashby and San Pablo avenues, Dwight and San Pablo avenues, and University and San Pablo avenues According to the report, video will be retained for 180 days. "It often will not become clear that the footage is necessary at all until later in the investigation," Malmberg said. "When the policy was originally approved by council, the discussion recognized that 30 days was not enough … A year felt too long, so we landed on 180 days as a middle ground." Louis said it would also address concerns that footage will still be there in cases of delayed reporting of crimes. Malmberg said that only authorized Police Department personnel will be able to access footage and only for approved uses. Approved uses include supporting specific and active criminal investigations, serious traffic-related investigations, police misconduct investigations and responding to and reviewing critical incidents or natural disasters. Other law enforcement agencies will not be able to directly access Berkeley's footage. Any requests for data will have to go through Berkeley Police, and anything relevant will then be downloaded and shared, Malmberg said. There will be a biannual audit of the surveillance system and the access log. Any time the data is accessed, it will be logged, along with a reason for the access. The city council still has to approve a contract with Flock. Berkeley had previously approved the surveillance program, but another report had to be presented as they decided to move forward with a different vendor and because of the different technology being used, according to the report.
