That’s one story. There are many out there. My point was that for some unexplained reason, the perp wasn’t arrested, booked, or NAMED.
Who can get away with punching another passenger, causing a plane to turn back, causing the airline to dump thousands of gallons of fuel (how much did that cost? 144 others inconvenienced!), causing 2 fighter jets to scramble (reported cost nearly $10 thousand/hr. per plane), and NOT get arrested OR even identified?
Friends in high places IMO.
