An Indian man who was in the United States illegally is in custody after a stabbing that took place aboard an airliner on Saturday. Praneeth Kumar Usiripalli, 28, is charged with one count of assault with a dangerous weapon with intent to do bodily harm while traveling on an aircraft in the special aircraft jurisdiction of the United States, according to a Department of Justice news release. The incident took place aboard a Lufthansa flight from Chicago that had been scheduled to land in Frankfurt, Germany. The incident took place while the plane was over the Atlantic, according to MassNewsLive.
Usiripalli is alleged to have used a metal fork to stab two 17-year-olds, neither of whom suffered life-threatening injuries, the release said. One of the teens was dozing in his seat when, according to prosecutors, he woke up to see see Usiripalli standing above him. The teen was then stabbed in the left shoulder area with a metal fork. The second 17-year-old, who was sitting next to the other teen, was then stabbed in the back of the head with the fork. The chaos didn’t stop there - witnesses told investigators that Usiripalli made a gun gesture with his hand, placed it in his mouth, and pretended to pull the trigger, the site reported. He then allegedly slapped a nearby female passenger and swung at a flight attendant who tried to intervene. The flight was diverted to Boston, per DOJ.
Upon landing, Usiripalli was immediately taken into custody after federal and state law enforcement officials boarded the plane. “Prosecutors say Usiripalli had entered the United States years ago on a student visa but no longer has lawful immigration status," Mass News Live reported. He had reportedly been enrolled in a master’s program in biblical studies before his status lapsed.

You know the funny thing, I don’t know of any case of an American, who is an illegal alien in another country that’s murdering raping and assaulting people
Boston man who will never be deported. I imagine the DNC machine already has an army of lawyers and a stack of cash to cover his defense, bail, and living expenses.
Massachusetts has a black Obama appointed female district judge.
Neither do I.
If/when the spin-off craze gets to the point where there is a
“Recent Arrival Bachelor” show, this guy sounds like the best candidate for the Bachelor spot. Overall, he seems nice.
diversity is our strength, I am told

Have the Democrats rushed to defend him yet?
Chuck Schumer making sure that American
taxpayers pay for his healthcare bills?
“You know the funny thing, I don’t know of any case of an American, who is an illegal alien in another country that’s murdering raping and assaulting people”
Not quite at that level, but there was an American DEI who decided the best way to get YouTube likes was to harass women randomly. The problem was that he did it in Japan...and so, after getting away with it for a while, he got a taste of ‘Japanese Justice”.
 
Are you talking about the black guy Johnny Somali ? I think all he got was deported .
“Prosecutors say Usiripalli had entered the United States years ago on a student visa but no longer has lawful immigration status,” Mass News Live reported.

I guess he didn’t absorb the material of that course.
“Joe Biden told me I could stay!!”
I don’t know of any case of an American, who is an illegal alien

That is odd.......snx
2 seventeen year olds?
If they were boys - and they didn’t beat that guys butt - they ought to be
ashamed.
How was an illegal allowed to board a flight in the US?
To Americans who will willingly stand in line at an airport and submit to security theater...
Don’t forget to tug your forelock.
Dems on the horns of a dilemma here: He’s illegal and violent now, but when he was legal he was a bible studies student.
Wow 😯
