Mesabah,

If, as you posit, she drank too much and just fell into his room, why is she now coming forth with a high-profile suit and story? She and the captain seemingly got away with drinking in the window with paid time off, got back to work. There is absolutely no incentive for her to bring it up now, ruining her career.

If the security footage is real, it sounds like the captain did force her to his room. It says she fought him for 20minutes to get to his room. The reason Alaska is doing nothing, is probably because her story doesn't match the evidence. As I posted above, women go to the police, saying they were drugged and raped, the police don't find evidence of drugs, and then it becomes a, "he said, she said" case.

This is the problem with alcohol, and why it is so dangerous.

In my opinion, both should be fired or both should be allowed to continue working.

Whoa. You're going to fire a girl for being raped? Ha. Good luck with that one

No, both fired for disorderly conduct, and violating company policy while on the clock, the rape charge is up to law enforcement.

Once again, it’s Alaska’s lawyer saying the security footage shows her fighting.

Worse yet is the attitude of some of these people who seem to regard getting coworker's - and SUBORDINATE coworker's at that - drunk and hitting on them when they are poorly able to resist as a perk of the job, and that the company should just look the other way when it happens.

This woman is actually going easy on the guy. She's going after the company to get them to institute policies to stop predators going after subordinate female employees on the company's time and the company's dime, rather than go after the guy personally.

Which if the Alaska lawyer lied about it gives HIM cause for action against both her and Alaska. If he's not filing a suit against them he is not challenging that interpretation.

Gee, you can parrot some terms you seemingly don't understand. I'm impressed. OF COURSE THEY ARE ADMINISTERED PER UNIT TIME. That unit time can be measured by the day, by the hour, by picograms per second.

That's like saying a jet engine only burns fuel in thousands of pounds per hour, never gallons per minute. That's just nonsense.

If this is true she needs at least a few million in lost wages so she never has to step foot in a cockpit there again. Talk about a hostile work environment.

If she is lying (doubtful) then still no way she can fly there again.
Because apparently people are unable to fly with someone who has been raped (if proven true)? It's something to be so ashamed of that people will be hostile and unable to fly with her for the rest of her career?

Give your fellow crewmembers some credit here. I think they have the capability to be professional. We're all pretty good at compartmentalization in this job. I think the pilots at Alaska can handle this.
