Here's a novel idea:

How's about (just this once) respecting the wishes of the parties involved (and at the same time defeating the trolls) and...

DON'T TALK ABOUT IT ON A PUBLIC FORUM

If you absolutely, positively HAVE to gossip about it, take it to the AOA forum.

Cpt. Knickers,

If it's public, it can be discussed on a public forum.

Here's the Google translation of the text from the link above:

Cathay Pacific flight attendants pilots involved in rape

I'm with Oval 3 Holer on this one.

It has made the news, it is available publicly (albeit in Cantonese - although copying and pasting the cantonese in google translator is quite entertaining in itself) so can therefore be talked about if someone wishes - especially on pprune. I believe "R" stands for rumour????

Cleared sexual assault charges

SCMP; Sunday, 16 December, 2012, 12:00am. bY John Carney and Lana Lam

Ex-Cathay Pacific pilot [REMOVED] cleared on sexual assault charges

All criminal charges against a former Cathay Pacific pilot accused of sexually assaulting a woman colleague in a New York hotel on New Year's Eve have been dropped. But the airline will not say if he will be reinstated.

[REMOVED], 35, was charged with a criminal sexual act in the third degree, two counts of forcible touching, third-degree rape and third-degree sexual abuse.

However, after a pre-trial hearing in New York on Thursday, all charges against [] were dropped. His lawyer Andrew Stoll was satisfied justice had been done.

"The district attorney's office announced in court a grand jury has dismissed the indictment against Mr [], and the district attorney's office dismissed the remaining misdemeanour charge against him," Stoll said. "The pre-trial dismissals are a full vindication for Mr T[], and clear proof that his accuser was simply not credible."

A spokeswoman for Cathay Pacific confirmed []was a former pilot with the airline but refused to comment on whether his contract, which was cancelled in light of the charges, would be reinstated.

The district attorney's office described the alleged victim as a 44-year-old woman cabin crew member who lived in Hong Kong. She said she was attacked in a Brooklyn hotel room at 3am on December 31, prosecutors said. [] was arrested soon after 7am.

A spokesman from the Brooklyn district attorney's office said there were no plans at this stage to launch a civil case against [].

In a separate case, Hong Kong police in June dropped an investigation into a pilot's alleged rape of a flight attendant while the crew of an international airline were staying at a five-star hotel in the city. The Department of Justice found there was insufficient evidence to proceed.
