The fact that they have been used their before makes it more likely that
Russell is telling the truth that permission was given in this case.

The owners have not addressed the past or addressed what their employees may
or may not have done.  The owners are probably telling the truth about their
personal knowledge and conduct, but that does not address the actions of
their employees.

The key thing is if you are going to report past to events to weaken or
strengthen the statements of one side or the other, an impartial journalist
should give the complete picture.
