(Nashville TN) Metro Police Officer Arrested For Sexual Battery

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A Metro Police officer turned himself in to be arrested Friday afternoon. A grand jury indicted Anthony Jackson on two counts of sexual battery.

A female waitress in a Hickory Hollow restaurant bar told police he put his hand into her pants. The incident occurred while he was off duty on February 22.

Anthony Jackson has worked for the police department for 13 years. He was decommissioned on April 7 when the investigation began.

DALLAS (AP) — The arrest of a United Airlines pilot this week for allegedly drinking too much before entering the cockpit is the latest in a series of incidents involving airline pilots and alcohol.

The United pilot, Erwin Vermont Washington, was about to take off from London’s Heathrow Airport for Chicago with 124 passengers on board. Instead, he was removed from the aircraft, suspended by his airline and now faces up to two years in a U.K. prison if convicted on criminal charges. He is the third U.S. pilot arrested in 13 months on alcohol-related charges.

Monday’s arrest raises more questions about what goes on in airplane cockpits. It follows the distracted flying incident in the U.S. last month, where Northwest Airlines pilots overshot Minneapolis by more than 100 miles because, they said, they were using their laptop computers.

In May an American Airlines pilot was arrested at Heathrow and charged with being under the influence of alcohol. Another United pilot was arrested on the same charge in October 2008. And a Southwest Airlines pilot was suspended in January after allegedly showing up for his flight in Ohio reeking of alcohol. He’s back on duty.

In 2008, 13 pilots violated the Federal Aviation Administration’s alcohol-related rules. Pilots can’t fly if they have a blood-alcohol level of 0.04 percent or higher, half the legal driving limit in most states. They are prohibited from drinking any alcohol in the eight hours before reporting for work, a provision known in the profession as the “bottle-to-throttle” rule.
