Imagine getting kicked off a flight before it even leaves the airport, then ending up in handcuffs because you refuse to calm down. >> Do you want me to see my mom and my dad because I'm trying to get away from the situation. No, I'm not going to jail. Explain why I'm still alive. >> July 25th, 2024 at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Now, a woman was supposed to fly American Airlines to Dallas-Fort Worth, but she was denied boarding after an incident at the airport. And things got worse when she kept arguing with officers and refused to follow their instructions. Well, here's how it all went down. >> Are they explaining it or what's going on? >> They already tried, didn't work. >> No, they ain't using it. Well, I don't know. >> I saw her making a swift exit and going on section A. >> I just saw her a second ago and I don't Hey Chris. Is it Chris, is it the lady standing in line again? >> Yeah, she's got a gray shirt and a long I can't remember. >> What's going on? >> I think she's over there now. She's got to get back in line. >> I am not at any liberty to disclose that information. >> Okay, so this is So, here's the deal. American is behind on the boarding process. She's not going to be able to get on this flight. So, what I'd like to do is help you get rebooked for another flight. >> Yeah, I'm not sure what the reason for that would be. >> Airlines are allowed to do that, okay? >> And what is the reason? >> We're saying that you're in the hospital. >> I'm not in the hospital. Cool, but I am >> So, yeah, this is This is the information. This is just information. Do you need medical attention? >> I've had a concussion. I'm just trying to make this flight. If you want to walk the line, I'll walk the line through it. I'm going to make this flight. My dead parents are on this flight. >> Your dead parents >> My dead parents. >> Okay. >> If someone reports a head injury or another medical concern during a police interaction, [music] officers may ask about their condition and request medical help when needed. And the exact response it depends on the person's condition and [music] the situation. And under federal aviation regulations and airport public safety laws, once an airline formally revokes a passenger's privilege to fly, refusing to leave the boarding area instantly elevates from a civil travel dispute into a criminal obstruction offense. Under Federal Aviation Administration regulations and established airport security standards, air carriers retain absolute legal authority to deny boarding to any passenger deemed unsafe, impaired, or disruptive. State and federal courts consistently reject arguments that purchasing a ticket guarantees unrestricted access to secure airport gates or aircraft. When a passenger refuses explicit police commands to leave a gate area after being denied boarding and continues to generate a public disturbance, law enforcement officers possess full legal probable cause to execute an immediate custodial arrest for criminal trespass, disorderly conduct, and obstruction. >> So, this flight they're not allowing you to board. So, here's what's going on. Okay. >> Nothing else is >> If you try to force your way onto this >> But, I've had a swelling in my brain. >> If you try to force your way on this aircraft, it's going to be a criminal matter. Okay?

I have my status. Yeah, I have I have hit by my ex-boyfriend and blood force trauma. I'm trying to go work. >> So, is this Is she being denied boarding by you guys? She's not going >> I I need you to do something for me to >> She's not going She's not going to accept your boarding. So, >> No, I have I have been affected by something else in >> At this point, it's an FAA regulation that we have. It supersedes your situation. >> What do you mean supersedes >> We can We can rebook you for >> I'm trying to get away to safety. Do you understand that? >> But, FAA regulations prohibit you from >> But, there's nothing of me that >> So, right now you're you're >> disabilities. What are you thinking I can do? Cuz symptoms of a concussion show signs of like >> all due respect, I can rebook you, but you're not going to fly today. And if you're making it a little bit difficult >> I need you to tell me tell me why I can't make this flight. I'm not disabled. >> Okay. So, now uh >> Do you need me >> Do you want anything in terms of surprise? >> No, no. >> I've got a concussion. You want My eyes are dilated. >> let's go. >> I have a concussion. >> Back up.

We'll take you. >> Take your bag. >> Let's grab your stuff. >> Do you want your bag? >> I've had a concussion. I've been beat by my ex-boyfriend. >> Let's go get your >> I have nice segments. >> Once they say you're not flying, it's over. Queen of self-entitlement. And I'm sure a whole plane full of people breathed a sigh of relief. There's always that one person who thinks they're more important than everyone else. >> Why won't you let me see my mom and my dad? Because I'm trying to get away from the situation. What the [ __ ] are you doing to me, though? >> Let's go. >> Why? This isn't [ __ ] fair.

We told you. >> Why are you [ __ ] pushing me, bro? >> Are you We have a 10-minute ETA on David 3. >> Okay, we'll just go to David 3. >> I need to talk to some supervisor.

Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right this time to talk to a lawyer and have them present while you're being questioned. If you If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before questioning if you wish. >> Hey, it's my dad. My dad. Can you tell him dad >> You have the right to exercise these rights and not answer any questions or make any statements. Do you understand these rights? >> Dad, I'm being detained. I don't have no idea why I'm being arrested. There's no reason I'm being arrested. I tried to catch my flight in Miami. >> Do you understand each of your rights that were explained to you? >> Okay, but do you understand that I told him that I had a concussion? That's explained to me because I can't be here. I can't. I've already been in jail. I can't do it. I can't do it again. >> Okay.

Now, Miranda rights generally tell a person in custody that they have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney before custodial questioning. Being read these rights does not mean that someone's been found guilty. You know, an arrest and a conviction are two different things. The officers still have to follow the proper legal process after taking her into custody. >> Do you have a flight? >> I don't know if you have a flight. >> What do I do if I'm a non-threat? I am a non-threat. I am a non-threat. I am not going I'm not going to jail. Explain why I'm You're wrong.

Cuz that's what you're going to get if you don't walk. >> I need to be out so I can go see my woman in the back. What, you guys going to beat me in the corner? Holy [ __ ] you're going to beat me in >> We're going to bring in a police dog here. >> Holy [ __ ] >> Put your shoe on. Put your shoe back on so you don't feet don't get all dirty. >> No, for what reason am I being arrested? For what reason? For what This is un- for. I don't know why >> I'm going to be doing a basic search. >> I don't know why you're doing this. >> I'm doing a basic search. >> The inability to understand simple instructions or follow basic commands can be a sign that someone may be impaired, which can also explain why they weren't allowed on the plane. You see how easy that was? The airport is a whole different world. When will people finally understand that? >> I I'm not No, I didn't trespass on anything. I did not cross this line. >> You will be doing a more thorough search at the jail. Is there anything on you that I need to know about? >> No. I need to I need to get out. >> I spoke with your father. He's expecting a call from you once you get there. >> Listen, I I I didn't do anything. I I'm I'm telling you I'm not under arrest for trespassing. I'm not under arrest for trespassing.

Brother, what the [ __ ] are you doing? Brother, what the [ __ ] are you doing? >> Another one who can't handle being an adult. Thousands of words spoken, zero words actually listened to. Another grown adult who just refuses to listen. The woman was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct and obstruction following the incident at the airport. The exact final outcome of the charges is not provided here, so we should not claim that she was convicted. The situation is a great reminder that once an airline decides a passenger cannot board, arguing with officers is not going to change that decision. If officers are investigating disturbance, refusing to cooperate or continuing to cause problems can create even more legal trouble. What do you think?
