Tf does him being a pilot have to do with anything?

The wife was the pilot. She and her husband abused the child.

Okay, same question but change the pronoun to her. Wtf does her being a pilot have to do with anything?

[–] Eggyhead@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

My guess would be to add shock value to the article, since pilots are traditionally held in high regard. It's subtly mentioned that she's a private pilot though, so probably just a citizen with a pilot's license anyway.

I don't think it said he was a pilot.

It's the first word of the headline. It's not the husband, though, it's the wife.

Police said the woman works as a pilot in a private airline while her husband is deployed as a ground staff at another one.
