Mesa Air Group, the parent of go! airlines, said its CFO Peter Murnane accidentally erased data related to an upcoming court case while trying to cover up his porn habit.

Hawaiian Airlines is suing Mesa Air Group for allegedly using confidential Hawaiian Airlines business information to launch go! airlines last year. Murnane, according to Mesa, has a long-standing habit of cruising porn sites, and he was trying to erase that information when he accidentally deleted hundreds of pages of computer records that allegedly would have shown that Mesa misappropriated the Hawaiian Airlines information.

In its defense Mesa presented evidence that Murnane had a long standing interest in porn; a Mesa executive testified Wednesday that he once saw Murnane looking at pornography on his work computer.

Mesa also stated that they have copies of the deleted files, so no harm was done.
