He faces 20 years in prison for showing his buttocks during a flight and not wearing a mask
A 29-year-old Irish citizen identified as Shane McInerney faces 20 years in prison for alleged "rebellious behavior" on a plane, including intimidating cabin crew, on January 7 on a trip from Dublin, Ireland to New York. York (USA).
The man, a football coach, caused "several disturbances" during Delta Air Lines' eight-hour drive.
McInerney, according to a court document, is accused of refusing to wear a mask despite being urged to do so, throwing an empty beverage can that hit another passenger's head, pulling down his pants and underwear, and refusing to remain in your seat during descent.
The individual appeared in court in New York on January 14, charged with assaulting and intimidating the flight crew, a crime that carries a maximum sentence of up to 20 years in federal prison, according to a court spokesman.
Meanwhile, while awaiting trial, McInerney was released on $20,000 bail, AFP reported.
In this regard, Delta airlines has reiterated its "zero tolerance for bad behavior." "Nothing is more important than the safety of our staff and our customers," he said.
The Federal Aviation Administration said in January 2021 that it would observe a zero-tolerance policy toward people who reject federal rules requiring the use of masks on US domestic flights.
