Another thing I am thinking of is that airport restrooms are some of the largest public restrooms anywhere. There are many, many stalls available... this is even true in women’s bathrooms, so must be even truer in men’s rooms.
Therefore, why would Craig need to stand in front of an occupied stall for two minutes, allegedly “waiting” for one to become available.
No, he was checking out the occupant and perhaps waiting for that specific stall to the left of Sgt. K to become vacant.
Yeah, does anyone wait in line to use the loo at the airport?
I won't sit on a stall in an airport unless I am in pain. And I wouldn't wait for a stall to open if my life depended on it. I need at least 10 minutes to clear the air before I will use a stall that someone else has been using.
There are hundreds of restrooms at the Minneapolis Airport. There is never a need to wait for a stall at an airport, especially one like Minneapolis. He knew that this was THE stall. The police knew too, that's why they set up shop at the stall next to it.
