Arrest over bomb joke on plane
From correspondents in New York January 17, 2004
A HOLIDAYING French student was in a New York jail here awaiting a court appearance following his arrest over an aircraft bomb "joke".
He left the plane at New York's Kennedy Airport after allegedly joking that he had put a bomb in the plane's toilet, court sources said.
Frank Moulet, 27, was in custody in a floating detention centre called "The Boat" in Long Island Sound off the borough of The Bronx pending charges of making a "false scare".
His girlfriend, arrested with him after they arrived on an American Airlines flight from Santo Domingo, was put on another plane and sent back to France.
Police were called to the plane after a cabin attendant reported that Moulet raised his fist in the air as the plane was landing and shouted, "Oh sh*t, I guess the bomb I planted in the toilet didn't go off".
He faces up to four years in prison on the charge.
US immigration officials have said they are also interested in questioning him.

WE have access to your information on the same day at the same time, just like that
No, you were a week late, actually.
and just because there are more than one french guy who's been curious and typed "+Moulet" "+arrest" in Google in order to know more
Ah, you're sticking to the script so far. But what makes you think the other two latecomers are French? No one but you has accused them of such a horrid thing,

but I recall noting in August 2001 how lax airline security really wasAnd it's just as lax today. There was some big name task fors that put out a report a couple of weeks ago that stated something to the effect that what's been done is just harass the law abiding without reducing the terrorist risk.

LOL! My college roommate and best man at my wedding was named Jack. Even way back then he and I had agreed that the proper phrase to use should be, "Greetings, Jack!" Other variants could include "hello", "hey what's up?", or the ever popular "salutations!" But never "Hi, Jack!"
