After getting forced off an airplane for asking passengers who appeared to her to be Latino whether they were drug mules, a niece of former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie bit, kicked and spit on Jefferson Parish sheriff's deputies trying to detain her on Thanksgiving Day at Louis Armstrong International Airport, authorities said.

I have to say, Spirit does not have a good record, including actual safety.
My boss was one of the victims a few years back with the whole “noxious smell” problem!
“Sounds to me like she was inquiring about drug smuggling because she needed a fix”
I was looking at the picture and she looks as Latino as the people she was reported to be hasseling.
loooool
If you see nothing, say something.
Any pics? Can’t seem to find one of her any where.
Well, statistically, I would think that about half of the people in this country with a Spanish surname are in this country illegally. Does that sound too high, or too low?
They may actually be French-speaking. This is Louisiana after all.
So how does this relate to her uncle? Most of the posters on this thread have stooped as low as the Democrats.
IAC, to get at the truth of a matter, it is always best to read, and digest, a few different versions of the same subject/incident/outcome/theory...
Rumor has it the plane ran out of donuts.
First I heard of this story
I thought that I read that Chris Creosote Christie had eaten her years ago
Doesn’t surprise me. I live in NJ. Christie is a fat loud mouth himself.
As you know since you’ve been here a long time too, FR originally was started in part to call out biased reporting.
But unfortunately, it has devolved into a place where anal retentives pick on anyone newer than them that does something that violates their own personal rules about what they think the site should be.
They don’t care but it is ruining the site.
i agree 100%
This is why Admins insist that posters always use the original headline from the source link. No additions, no comments...headline only. It makes a search before posting very effective. Plus, the search function requires a minimum of four letters to work.
these were different articles and different headlines. FR search tends to be exact…you can’t search “assault” and return “assaulting”.
Been doing it too long not to have noticed the inconsistencies.
Six deputies hurt
In the scuffle, she injured six deputies, biting one on the arm and breaking the skin, and kicking another in the groin, Rivarde said. They were treated there by paramedics.
All the while, Epstein shouted that the deputies were going to lose their jobs or end up in jail, boasting that she was related to powerful people and that her uncle is a friend of former President Donald Trump, Rivarde said. Chris Christie did not return messages left Friday at two telephone numbers associated with him.
Seven deputies were needed to handcuff Epstein to a wheelchair, so that she could be moved to the airport security office, Rivarde said. She continued to shout vulgarities and try to bite deputies, he added.
They booked Epstein with six counts of battery on a police officer, three of disturbing the peace, one of resisting arrest by force and one of remaining after forbidden, Rivarde said. She paid $10,750 bail and was released from the Jefferson Parish Correctional Center later on Thanksgiving Day.
