‘I took a lot of heat for nailing this creep as a scammer on day one. He was begging for a hostile altercation with $$$$ flashing in his eyes thinking of the suit he planned to bring against the airline.
LOCK HIM UP!’
Your premise only works if Dao wanted to be injured and could foresee that he would be. Otherwise, there’s no ‘scam.’ You don’t make “$$$$” from being removed safely and uninjured from a plane under these circumstances. At best—at the absolute most optimal—Dao *might* have won enough to cover his legal fees.
So A, or B.
A, being Dao planned to be seriously injured, which would have been the only way to break more than even—with that being a longshot—under the circumstances.
B, Dao didn’t want to be injured, and therfore wasn’t attempting any kind of scam.
Take your pick.

No thanks. Instead I will pick C. Dao wanted to create an altercation and be forcibly removed, kicking and screaming, from the plane. And of course that is just what happened. What he didn’t anticipate (and the security agents probably didn’t either) is what commonly happens in physical altercations: PEOPLE GET INJURED.
