Sounds more like somebody with juice got on the wrong plane....and has enough juice to get it to take him or her back to L A.

Makes sense. Who would want to take a chance with O.J. on board.

Here is the path the plane took showing the spot where it turned around. The official explanation is that one of the passengers got on the wrong plane but I'm not buying it. Even if a passenger did manage to get on the wrong plane, you don't let one person's mistake ruin the flight for all the other passengers.

Four hours out and four hours back!

There was somebody on that plane that the U.S. did not want getting to Tokyo.
