Hanin Atalla and Erik Lund had a social relationship and became “close friends” before Atalla began working at Rite Aid where Lund worked as a district manager/district leader. Atalla and her husband socialized with Lund and his wife, and Atalla and Lund exchanged hundreds of texts; joked with one another in those texts; texted about personal matters; and sent multimedia messages to one another.

They also frequently met for lunch and went out for coffee together. Late one Friday night after meeting with his “wine group,” Lund sent Atalla a “Live Photo” of himself masturbating, followed shortly thereafter by a photo of his penis. Lund texted that he was “so drunk right now” and that he had “meant to send to wifey.” Lund texted an apology to Atalla the next day to which she did not respond. Source
