[edit] In the news
On May 12, 2006, she was arrested and charged with several offenses including assault, after an air rage incident during a British Airways flight. During the incident, passengers had to restrain her when the flight attendants failed. She even managed to bite one of the flight attendants. The plane landed at Goose Bay in Labrador, Canada, where, four days later, she pled guilty to all charges and was ordered to pay a Canadian $10,000 fine as well as the Canadian $18,491.73 charge that British Airways incurred for the emergency landing in Labrador. She was also sentenced to eight days in jail by the judge, which was the time she had already served.
She was ordered to remain in custody until the fines were paid. She paid $10,000 and $9,000 to British Airways in order to be released after a change in her probation order secured by her lawyer. She will have to pay the rest later. She also stated that she pleaded guilty because it would have taken her a month to be cleared of the charges, referring to the REM guitarist Peter Buck case, which set a standard for air rage cases.
