A Swedish student was hailed as a “hero” and captured worldwide social media attention after she stopped the deportation of an Afghan migrant by refusing to sit down on a plane.
But despite a week of mainstream media not even asking why the man was being deported, it has finally emerged that the Afghan Muslim migrant had been convicted of a "violent assault" on a Swedish citizen, among other crimes, and had been rejected for asylum in the nation.
The young woman live streamed the whole incident and it was viewed nearly 5 million times on Facebook alone. In the video, she’s heard saying “there is a man who is going to get deported to Afghanistan, where he will most likely get killed” and the she won’t “sit down until this person is off the plane.”
Elin Ersson, a student at Gothenburg University, was subjected to fawning media coverage over her stunt earlier this month when she refused to take her seat on the plane until the 52-year-old Afghan deportee was released. She was successful and authorities weren’t able to deport the man. However, Swedish Police confirmed to Fox News that the man whose deportation Ersson prevented had received a prison sentence in Sweden for "at least" one assault of a "severe nature". The police spokesman declined to go into more details about the crime the migrant has committed. His asylum application was also rejected.

She is one of the lucky ones that hasn’t been raped yet.
The important thing is that she got another dose of her narcissistic supply.
Why didn’t they boot her off the plane and continue on?
I know who should have been taken off the plane and put on a no-fly list and it wasn’t the muslim.
Idiotic, know-nothing koo-koo bird.
Totally! Boot the slatch and have her arrested for interfering with the flight crew, then deport the muzzbag back to crapcrapistan where he belongs.
Reading between the lines, she stopped the deportation of someone who raped an underage girl who probably looked a lot like herself.
Good thing she wasn’t on a United flight. She’d have been beaten up and removed from the aircraft.
Amen. Stupid people deserve whats coming to them.
Useful Idiots with Smart Phones will destroy Humanity.
That’s what I figure.
useless idiot.
I had to look “slatch” up. New one to me.
Her eyes look dead and very sad
Should have booted her and let the flight go on
This swedish nitwit possibly craves the moozlum sausage. What a loser and idiot.
Why would they deport the Trogolodyte back to his home $hiitehole country on a plane carrying PAYING passengers?
Probably put him in First Class.
Aren’t the Airlines & Government Officials putting the ‘motoring public’ in dire straits?
Would have been easier and less paperwork to TELL the passenger to sit down or get tossed off the plane.
ONE WARNING.
I don’t think I would want to continue on that flight after all that drama...
