About That Guy Who Caused A JetBlue Diversion... Oh My

Several days ago I wrote about a JetBlue flight that diverted to Minneapolis due to a passenger who was snorting cocaine and acting inappropriately. This was on a New York to San Francisco flight, and the passenger was seated in JetBlue’s Mint business class.

If I did any of those things you say I did, why is there no video of me doing these things? I was peaceful to everyone. And there wasn't any cocaine either. I've got the documents from the discovery motion. Where are the witnesses? My life was ruined. I never got my day in court. I am a good man. I know Love is the Way.

Over forty years of flying around the world and it’s always the Americans who are a nuisance in the air. We wonder why the rest of the world looks at us with disdain.

Echoing someone above, 24.5 grams is a HUGE amount -- not remotely a "personal use" amount. Roughly eight "8 balls." Completely insane (or, more likely insanely high) to walk into an airport / traverse a TSA checkpoint carrying this, let alone flaunt it on a plane.

Josh, People have the right to know the truth and what is going on inside the aircraft while they are inside the aircraft and no where to go so a general canned announcement doesn't do it for me and I'm sure a lot of others feel the same. I fly on JetBlue every month and this is the only airline I feel comfortable taking because they put my mind at ease. So kudos and big thank you to all the JetBlue pilots and flight attendants for keeping me and the rest of the passengers safe and informed.

What the hell is with the detailed recount of the man's alleged activities by what seems to be the pilot? Really? What ever happened to, "Ladies and gentlemen, we regret to advise that due to a disturbance on board, it is necessary for us to divert. Our ground staff will be waiting to assist you with rearranging your travel plans. On behalf of jetBlue, I apologise for this inconvenience"? Since when is it appropriate to give a blow-by-blow (!) account of what the passenger apparently did?

Bravo to the flight crew and all passengers who remained calm and prevented what could have been a terrible disaster. I cannot imagine being on that flight and I am a seasoned psych nurse of 38 years!
