'Horrifying': Delta worker uploads explicit video on a child's iPad, lost on a flight; parents sue airline
Pornographic videos of a supposed Delta worker appeared of iCloud after a child's iPad was lost on a flight. A South Carolina couple has sued Delta Airlines after they found an explicit video on their iCloud account after their child lost an iPad on a flight. "This experience has been horrifying and something we never could have anticipated," Brooke Brewer, who filed the lawsuit with her husband, Tory Brewer, said in a statement to Newsweek. The airline said the worker was not a Delta employee but worked for a vendor company. Delta Air Lines has zero tolerance for unlawful behavior of any kind, a spokesperson said. According to the complaint, Brooke and Tory Brewer flew with their two children on a Delta flight from Charleston to New York City on July 19, 2023, before connecting to a flight to London. Upon reaching London, they realized that they left an iPad on the flight to New York. Brooke Brewer began receiving text messages about the missing device, so she used Apple's "Find My" app to trace it to the New York City borough of Queens, the complaint said. Soon after, selfies appeared on the family's iCloud. The individual who featured in those selfies was wearing a Delta uniform. Then, on August 27, pornographic videos of the same individual began appearing in family's iCloud account. "In the videos, the Defendant Delta's employee is masturbating while in his Delta uniform and wearing his Delta name badge," the complaint said. The individual is not named in the complaint. Another pornographic video of the same individual appeared on the family's iCloud a month later. "This experience has been horrifying and something we never could have anticipated. In the rush of de-boarding, our child simply left their device on the plane. We're sharing our story in hope we can help prevent this from happening to others. If speaking out can spare just one family from having to endure something like this, we would be grateful," the mother said. The family is seeking compensation for the "mental and emotional pain and suffering they endured and continue to endure," according to the complaint.

What To Know According to the complaint, Brooke and Tory Brewer flew with their two children on a Delta flight from Charleston to New York City on July 19, 2023, before connecting to a flight to London. When they arrived in London, they realized they had left an iPad belonging to one of their children—in a pink Peppa Pig case—on the flight to New York. Brooke Brewer began receiving text messages about the missing device, so she used Apple's "Find My" app to trace it to the New York City borough of Queens, the complaint said. Soon afterward, selfies of an individual wearing a Delta uniform and name badge began appearing on the family's iCloud account, the complaint said. On August 27, pornographic videos of the same individual began appearing in family's iCloud account. "In the videos, the Defendant Delta's employee is masturbating while in his Delta uniform and wearing his Delta name badge," the complaint said. The individual is not named in the complaint. The family first filed a "lost-and-found" report with Delta on July 20, the complaint said. They filed a second report on August 27. The only response the family received between August 27 and September 3, 2023, were "generalized 'no-reply' emails indicating that the Defendant was searching for the device," the complaint said. Another pornographic video of the same individual appeared on the family's iCloud account on September 3, the complaint said. It also alleged the individual accessed the family's iTunes account to create their own profile and a profile on their Amazon account titled "Gay." What People Are Saying Brooke Brewer, in a statement to Newsweek: "This experience has been horrifying and something we never could have anticipated. In the rush of de-boarding, our child simply left their device on the plane. We're sharing our story in hope we can help prevent this from happening to others. If speaking out can spare just one family from having to endure something like this, we would be grateful." Delta Air Lines, in a statement: "Delta is aware of the complaint. The accused individual is not a Delta employee but one of a vendor company. We have zero tolerance for unlawful behavior of any kind but will decline to comment further on this pending litigation." What Happens Next The family is seeking compensation for the "mental and emotional pain and suffering they endured and continue to endure," according to the complaint. They are also seeking "reimbursement for their losses and all bills and expenses incurred."

Delta employee ‘recorded explicit videos on child passenger's iPad'
A Delta Airlines employee is accused of using a child's iPad to record pornographic images of himself that were uploaded to the cloud. A month after the family lost the item, wrapped in a pink Peppa Pig case, explicit images of the employee allegedly started appearing in the device's shared cloud storage. The child is said to have discovered the images when searching for the missing iPad using the Find My app. According to a lawsuit filed by passengers Tory and Brooke Brewer, of South Carolina, at first, the pictures simply showed the Delta employee in uniform. Yet the images became increasingly more explicit. 'In the videos, the Delta employee is masturbating while in his Delta uniform and wearing his Delta name badge,' the lawsuit claims. 'Before their trip, during their travel, and after their journey ended, the plaintiffs had no expectation that they would be subjected to vile and disturbing pornographic material as a result of their choice to be ticketed passengers on one of the defendants' flights.' Employee 'hacked into family Amazon account' The Brewer family is being represented by lawyer Tola Familoni of the Motley Rice law firm. He told the Guardian: 'What should have been a fun family getaway was riddled with confusion and anxiety over unauthorised access to their personal devices, a breach of privacy, and the transmission of highly inappropriate, explicit video recordings sent through their child's personal devices.' The lawsuit claims the incident happened in July 2023 after the Brewer family flew from Charleston to New York City's John F Kennedy Airport. The lawsuit alleges that the Delta employee, who is not named in the legal filings, was also able to hack his way into the family's Amazon account. Once inside the account, he allegedly set a new profile under the name 'Gay'. The lawsuit says the family's children saw what had happened and alerted their parents In a statement to The Telegraph, Delta said it was aware of the legal case. 'The accused individual is not a Delta employee but one of a vendor company,' it added. 'We have zero tolerance for unlawful behaviour of any kind but will decline to comment further on this pending litigation.' The Brewer family is suing both Delta and Unifi Aviation, a ground handling and aviation services company. They are alleging negligence, negligent infliction of emotional distress, intentional infliction of emotional distress, sexual assault and harassment.
