A disruptive passenger was restrained with flexible handcuffs and duct-taped to a seat as his flight was diverted to make an emergency landing in Baltimore Thursday night, photos and video from other passengers showed.
Richard Olenick and Juan Mejia were more than halfway through the flight when a man two rows behind them in the first-class section started to become belligerent, Olenick said.
A flight attendant tried to control the situation but the man got increasingly agitated, started to hit the passenger next to him and then hit a woman who tried to intervene, Olenick said.
Why? So people who live thousands of miles away can see a headline, dox them, then harass their family based on assumptions for years?
You have no idea why this happened, or what the situation around it is. You have no reason to judge and punish this person.
That’s fair. But when you’re arrested on suspicion of committing a crime, your identity is made public. I guess I’m more wondering why this guy’s name and image are withheld in this instance.
Only in America
Which is where I am and where this happened and where the article is being published, sooo… I guess my question still stands?
