On June 20th, 2024, Tampa Airport police responded after a passenger refused to leave the jetway following a dispute over her missed flight.

You probably interfere with the flight from leaving. That's going to be a federal charge. >> I did not. >> Trust. I don't know yet. >> Okay. Well, you can pull up the footage. >> Okay. We'll find that out. All right. >> Officers arrive to find the subject in the jetway area. Airport police have authority to enforce trespass warnings on behalf of airlines. The officer's initial approach is calm and professional, consistent with deescalation training. The subject resists cooperation and claims to be on the phone with her lawyer. Under Florida law, remaining on property after being warned to leave constitutes criminal trespass. The subject's profanity and confrontational language raise questions about disorderly intoxication. Florida law requires intoxication in a public place, plus either endangerment or public disturbance. Officers evaluate three elements. intoxication shown through impaired judgment, public place, which airports clearly are, and public disturbance from the subject's behavior. Officers mention potential federal charges for flight interference. If the subject blocked the aircraft door and delayed departure, this constitutes a federal offense carrying up to 20 years imprisonment. >> And right now, you're probably going to be trespassed >> for what? I had >> for not leaving. For not leaving. >> I have a ticket. >> No, not anymore. If they just Hey, >> where's your ticket? Do you have it with you? >> Yeah, right here. >> So, >> all right. Hold on, John. Let me call you. No, >> let me see. >> Oh, if it's right there, you can hold it. You can't. >> So, I can It's hard for me to see. Sorry. >> All right. Hold on. >> 4 7:34. >> So, it's 9:25. >> I'm sorry. >> Not good. This was delayed. >> Okay. So, the doors closed at 8:04. So, here's what happened. >> Now, you know what? >> Can Can I talk to you? Go ahead. >> All right. So, you missed your flight. Okay. So, what I'm trying to see is that you probably is trying to get in the in another flight that doesn't belong to you. I did. Did you reschedu your ticket? >> God, no. The flight was delayed. I got a picture. >> So, can I can I tell you something? >> Picture. Can you listen to me? All right. Look at me. All right. >> I'm trying to help you. If you don't let me help you, >> I'm going to run out of patience right now. Okay. So, let me No. Stop. Okay. Enough office is enough. >> Okay. >> So, what we can do is we can go down to Spirit to see if they can rebuke you for tomorrow. Okay. or you're going to have to go home and you can do it yourself. Those are your choices right now. Okay. So, what do you want to do? Be tell me right now, please, because I'm really I really want to help you. So, the best thing for you right now is to leave. Get somebody to pick you up or you take Uber, whatever you need to do, leave the premises. That's the best thing I can tell you right now. You need to do >> Can I tell can I ask question the first option? >> This this person on the phone. Can I ask the question? Who's the person on the fly? >> Why am I have to do that? >> Because you missed your flight. Fly out. >> You missed your flight. >> Why did I miss my flight? >> I don't know. I wish I could tell you. You're the one that got the fly. >> Let's go back to the train over there. >> We'll find out. There's an interference. >> Okay. All right. >> You need your ID cuz you're part of investigation right now. >> You could get my ID. You can get everything. And I want everybody's name. >> Yes, you will get it. Don't worry about it. >> Everybody's >> And everything is re recorded. So, you know, >> you know what, Spirit? This has been going on with Spirit. You had your DL. >> What's that? >> Do you have your DL? Your driver's license. >> You have a driver's license? >> My passport. That's it. >> That's all you have. You don't have a driver's license? >> No. Copy my US passport. Okay, you >> want to see you outside when I came and got me. >> One more. One more time. You swear in front of all these people you're going to get arrested. >> Okay. I was sitting on the seat and then they told me they to get up. Like they was telling me that there was the better option or whatever. >> Yeah. So >> I am too. So what is like what is it? >> Three times so far. >> What are you going to do? Do >> you want to go to the air sign? >> Where do you want to go to the terminal? >> Jail. >> For what? >> What do you mean for what? >> For what? >> We've asked you multiple times to leave. You weren't leaving. We asked multiple times. >> Anything? Because I don't even know what they were talking about on the plane. >> Let me see your license. They don't have a record.

Here, I'm going to go to the next flight. Can I go? Can I just go, please? >> You can't go to any other flight. I'm trying to explain you what's going on and you seems like you really don't want to help yourself >> because I don't want to understand what's going on. >> I already told you that you are is a person in there. Can I can I talk? >> You can talk in front of her. You can talk to me in front of her. >> So what I got is that you >> were you weren't let these people close the door at the at the airplane and when I got there you literally were standing at the door and they could they couldn't close the door. >> Where did you get before that? I have nothing before that. I'm just telling you what I saw. And they just want you to leave the jetway because they had to close the door. That's basically interfering with the with the crew. >> Okay. So, what about before that? Y [clears throat] don't give a >> No. Can you please stop that? I'm I'm talking to you normal. >> I'm sorry. I'm sorry. >> I'm talking to you normal. >> Say that. >> I'm just I'm being nice. Listen. Listen. Can you talk to Listen, I'm being nice and polite with you. I don't need that. Okay. >> I'm trying to help you. >> Let me tell you what happened. So before the lady came, she just >> Malaysia Malaysia Malaysia. I'm sorry. I don't know how to say Malaysia and it >> sitting in my seat as well as I'm sitting there like me and the man next to me. We're talking. He said he wanted an out seat.

It's regular with a a flight of first. the person the the flight attendant she says come on get up >> whatever she says or whatever I listen I go to the end of the I mean I'm already sitting in my seat I go to the end of the plane with her she's talking to me she like oh they kicking you off the plane I'm like why she never give me a reason nothing never did nothing. >> I wouldn't I I wouldn't wildife. Give me one second. Okay. >> And you know what? If she want me to leave, whatever. The plane was full cuz she told me that cuz I was trying to get a like a different seat. >> Mhm. >> You know what I mean? And the plane was full. >> Can I see your ticket? The one shows that you were supposed to be on that flight because seems like you No, no, no. That one. That one. It looks >> She printed me out. This one she printed me out. This >> This is what I got printed out. Like, and I was sitting in that seat and she pulled me up. >> Like, she dragged me out of that seat for no reason. I'm sitting there just sitting there. >> What I'm thinking is you probably got into a bear bowl with somebody in there. That's reason why they got >> Can you clean yourself? >> Yeah. >> You need to relax, Cory. Okay. It's the best thing for you right now. talk to me like I was having such a good I'm talking to the person next to me cuz at first I'm like skeptical I'm sitting in the middle seat or whatever like it's a middle row but the person next to me in the other like they were good people I'm just sitting there so now I'm like all right just about to fall asleep or whatever and then she comes get up and she just drag me out of my seat and I literally think it's because somebody paid for it cuz I'm not going to lie >> what I didn't pay for what I'm see what I'm seeing here is that you missed your flight at 7:34 because >> I did not miss my flight. >> It was just delay. >> I've been here. Yes. And I've been here. >> And I've been here the whole time. I didn't miss my flight. >> Why? Where were you going? >> I'm going to Detroit. >> Stay calm.

No, it doesn't. >> Yes, you can. >> How you doing, man? >> Hi. >> I just I guess you can't hear what I'm trying to I'm trying to help her as much as I can. You've been on the phone all this time, right? >> So, I've been trying to do whatever I can, you know? >> I hear you. >> So, >> is it is it possible that she can get on the next to >> Okay. Well, can I can >> So, what happened? You were on the flight. You were leaving. Cause a problem on the flight. They turned around because of you as you get off the flight. You stood there and you blocked the door. >> So, they wouldn't leave. That's called interference with the flight. >> Disor and if they want to file charges or whatever, I'll file against that. Absolutely. Because I was recording the whole time and nothing happened. >> What I literally believe is that they >> listen. Listen to him, please. >> Need you to take your phone. I need you to take all >> you're under arrest. >> You're under arrest. >> Okay. Can I keep my phone? >> The ticket shows the flight door closed at 8:04. >> Current time is 9:25, nearly 2 hours later, confirming she missed her flight. Officers have lawful authority to identify someone detained for trespass investigation. The subject provides her passport as identification. Repeated profanity in a public area with travelers present strengthens the public disturbance element. Florida courts have held that profanity combined with confrontational behavior can meet the statutory threshold. The subject insists she didn't miss her flight despite clear evidence to the contrary. This impaired judgment regarding basic facts suggests possible intoxication under Florida law. According to the officer, the subject was on the aircraft, caused a disturbance requiring the plane to return to the gate, then physically block the door, preventing closure. This would constitute federal flight crew interference. Officers check handcuff tightness when the subject complains. Under Graham versus Connor, handcuffing during arrest is reasonable. Officers demonstrate proper application by inserting fingers underneath. >> You can take all this off. >> Oh my god. >> You're going to have to call your doctor. >> Hey, you don't hang up my phone. Don't put it too tight. >> I don't want to hurt. I don't want to hurt. >> No, it is. >> She is already like >> Listen, I had even tied. >> She didn't even tie it. >> Doesn't hurt. Wait. >> It's okay. interfering with the plate and caus that. >> Look, look at that. >> Look, look. Can you feel the finger right there? That's exactly how fluid it's going to be. Okay. >> I'm under arrest. >> Oh, that one's hot as [ __ ] dog. >> Where? >> I left both of them. >> They're just going to come here and do the search. >> Okay. >> It's super tight. >> It is no tight. >> Please. >> Look. Look at this. >> Listen. Stop. 2137. >> See, see it's You see how loose it is? You see how loose it is right here? You see that? >> Okay. >> This is what happens when you always get your weight. >> Well, take the pack off. >> Yeah. >> Ow. It's so tight. >> It is not tight. Okay. >> This is so tight. >> It is not tight. >> Please loosen it a little bit. >> It is not tight. Look, you can't move your wrist and all that. So, >> it's hurting me. We can take it down to the truck court. >> Okay. >> I got the passport in all day. >> Come on. Let's go. >> Keep listening just a little bit. >> Downstairs. >> Y to me. >> Cuz everything is being recorded. Okay. So, >> it's on cameras. >> Say you right there. >> Yep. You're right there. >> Where is that? >> Right there. See that red light? That means that it's recording. >> What's your name? >> Corpo Olsson. >> Corpos Olsson. >> Olsson.

Yeah, I'll do this here real quick. >> Can't believe y'all. Yo, d >> sit in my car right now. Oh, you don't have I got to go back to the office. >> There's no way. Who else been through? How many times you do this a day? >> Going to look into the federal charge. >> A federal charge? >> Yeah, you block the plane from >> So, it's a federal charge. >> What the What do you mean? So, listen, listen, listen. Hold on. Cuz I got >> I'm not going to I'm not going to explain to you. >> Listen. >> No. I want to know what you can tell. I got a federal charge. What do you mean I got a federal charge? >> For what? >> Come on, man. Are you holding me for aggressive? Like >> I'm not hold you aggressive at all. We just walked southwest. >> Damn. I can't believe I'm going through this though. Can y'all record this? >> How can I get this footage?

Sanchez. >> Broke my arm. >> You almost finger. You sure? >> You want to do something? Get in the car. >> That's crazy. I ate that [ __ ] in the car. Officers explain federal charges are being investigated. Federal flight interference is prosecuted by the U. S. attorney and carries severe penalties, including imprisonment and permanent federal criminal record. The subject claims officers broke her arm despite clear video showing full range of motion and minimal force used. Officers employed only necessary force to affect the arrest. The subject was charged with disorderly intoxication under Florida Statute 856.01. 011 evaluating intoxication. The subject's impaired judgment is evident in her denial of missing the flight. However, she walked steadily and spoke clearly, which could indicate sobriety. The public disturbance element is strongest. Repeated profanity in a crowded terminal, confrontational behavior, and operational disruption likely satisfy the legal threshold. Officers made over 12 attempts at deescalation before arrest. This exceptional patience exceeds industry standards and demonstrates commitment to peaceful resolution. Use of force analysis under Graham versus Connor. Officers used minimal force, soft hand control, and standard handcuffing with no strikes, takedowns, or aggressive techniques. Federal prosecutors typically reserve flight interference charges for serious cases with violence or major safety hazards. Whether federal charges were pursued here remains unknown. Officers receive a B+. They demonstrated exceptional patience with over a dozen deescalation attempts, professional demeanor despite provocation, and minimal appropriate force. The arrest appears legally justified based on prolonged profane outbursts and refusal to leave. However, the intoxication element is questionable. The subject walked steadily and spoke clearly, allowing defense arguments that behavior resulted from frustration rather than intoxication. Additionally, the extended engagement may have been unnecessarily prolonged. Despite minor concerns, officers resolved a difficult situation without excessive force or constitutional violations. The B+ reflects competent professional police work. The subject receives a D. Her behavior was uncooperative and confrontational throughout. After missing her flight, she had one obligation. Leave when instructed. Her refusal transformed a minor inconvenience into criminal charges. Repeated profanity in a crowded airport demonstrated poor judgment. Refusing to end her phone call prevented productive communication. Exaggerated injury claims attempted to create a false record. If she blocked the aircraft door, this potentially constitutes serious federal criminal conduct. Mitigating factors, she didn't physically resist arrest once custody was announced, showed some legal awareness by mentioning an attorney, and didn't make violent threats. This prevents a complete failure grade. However, at every decision point, she chose confrontation over cooperation. She could have left when first requested, complied with officers, ended her phone call, or moderated her language. These choices created entirely preventable criminal consequences. The D-grade reflects fundamental failure to meet basic civic obligations while avoiding complete failure due to absence of physical violence. Key lessons: Officers should continue patient deescalation even with uncooperative subjects. Citizens must understand that lawful orders must be obeyed. Challenge police authority in court with an attorney, not through street confrontation. Airport security zones have overlapping state and federal jurisdiction with minimal tolerance for disruption. Post September 11th. Behavior that might be warnings elsewhere can lead to arrest and federal investigation at airports.
