The suit alleges the pilots gave the female crew members beer laced with a drug and that one of them was raped during a layover in Puerto Rico, NBC News reports.
Two female JetBlue crew members are claiming in a lawsuit against the airline and two of its pilots that they were drugged and one of them was sexually assaulted during a layover in Puerto Rico.
The women say in the suit that the drugging and assault that allegedly occurred during the layover and the company's alleged failure to respond adequately to their complaints violated laws against sex discrimination, gender discrimination, sexual harassment, and a hostile work environment. JetBlue did not respond to NBC's requests for comment on whether any disciplinary action was taken against the two pilots.
After the women drank from the can of beer, the"rest of the night became a blur," according to the lawsuit.
