“Sit Down Karen…You’re Going To Jail!” (Hijinks On Delta Flight From Florida)

Somehow I missed this over the Christmas holiday, but a boisterous passenger really made a scene on a Delta flight only to be schooled by another passenger. That led to assault and the police meeting the aircraft. All ostensibly because a lady without a mask screamed at a man without a mask to put his mask on…

“Karen, You’re Going To Jail!” Yells Man After Woman Punches Him On Delta Flight

The incident occurred onboard a Delta Air Lines flight from Tampa (TPA) to Atlanta (ATL) last Thursday. Apparently, the young woman in the center of the video below was “acting belligerent with an older flight attendant” (according to a now-deleted Instagram video).

Eventually, another passenger got fed up and yelled at the woman, calling her a “Karen” and telling her to sit down (the video calls her a “drunk Karen” though the video offers no proof this was an alcohol-fueled incident).

The woman yells at the man to put his mask on…but she herself was not wearing a mask. A flight attendant tells both of them to put on a mask, but the man claims he is eating and drinking.

She cursed him out, he cursed her back, she punched him in the face, and he yelled, “You’re going to jail. That’s assault!”

The video then shows a police car meeting the aircraft with further commentary from a passenger onboard:

“She went crazy on the airplane. Punched his man in the face. Spit him. Scratched him. Poured hot water on my leg.”

The now-deleted caption on Instagram read:

“Her screaming about his mask really wasn’t the issue she was just yelling.. she spit in his face then the crew. Tried to push her back with the cart.

…She punched him a few times and he was actually bleeding. Pretty sure she was highly intoxicated.”

Lovely.

Do note the video is not safe for work…

CONCLUSION

Perhaps drunkenness is an inevitable explanation for a woman without a mask yelling at a man to put his mask on, but what a sight. How pathetic. And I cannot help but to think the old man was somehow enjoying the hijinks.

    This ‘lady’ is famous for showing her private parts in a major mens magazine. Who GAF what she says or wants. Enjoy the jail time loser.

    She was in Baywatch and Married with Children along with being a Raiders cheerleader. Now a Real Estate agent, also nowblaming it on a lack of medication.

    No excuses and actually the 80 year old handled himself fairly well.

    Let us all have some compassion.

    The woman was sexually assaulted by her boy friend when she was in high school 30 years ago. At that time she was a willing participant but had recently found that she was actually assaulted. The trauma causes her to lose control and act in ways she never would have otherwise. The cheating on taxes and bank fraud was a result of that assault. Men will never know what this woman is going through 30 years later.

    The guy is just retired a few years ago and his adult sons have nothing to do with him since he has nothing to pass on to them as inheritance. He would rather get covid and be in the ICU, as the attention from the nurse would be more than he has had from anyone for last 5 years .

    They both are suing delta and each other for trauma caused and the other reasons that their lawyers will publicize soon.

    I predict they both will be married to each other by next year. America!

    This woman “Karen Delta” has all sorts of problems. She was recently arrested for drunk driving in Florida. In 2020, she crashed her car in the L.A. area, into an obstruction, and her car became stuck. When the tow truck driver came, she became aggressive, and the cops were called. They detected an odor of alcohol on her breath and she was charged with drunk driving. She also attacked them. She only received a suspended sentence, and probation. Unfortunately, the story doesn’t end there. In 2020, she attacked and beat the heck out of her step-father (69 years old), by punching him, kicking him while he was done, and acting like a lunatic. She was angry, because he would not tell her where her Mother was. Her Mother was hiding from her, because she had previously threatened her Mother with violence. The parents sought an order of protection against her for assault, and she was placed in a psychiatric hold unit three times. In addition, her sister-in-law also filed an order of protection against her, for making threats. In any event, when she was arrested in Atlanta, she was held for several days. The judge had an extensive conversation with her Attorney, and released her on $20,000 bail, on the condition that she does not use a bus, train or plane, while out on bail. It is unclear how she will return to the Atlanta Federal court, for any legal proceedings, or if such proceedings will be conducted at the Federal Court in L.A., where she lives. Also, Delta has placed her on their no-fly list. She is one sick and disturbed individual, who according to her relatives, is violent and confrontational. It appears that she was also under the influence of alcohol, or something else, at the time of her altercation on the Delta flight. It is too bad that the airlines don’t have a better system of screening these psychos from boarding flights in the first place.

    Woman hits someone. Then she spits, especially dangerous during civid. All bets are off at that point. Grab her by the throat and beat her teeth out. She will learn.
