LAWYER'S SARCASTIC COMMENT AT AIRPORT SECURITY ABOUT A BOMB IN A SUITCASE WAS PROBABLE CAUSE TO ARREST
The Plaintiff's arrest was justified when she made a sarcastic comment about a bomb in her bag after she was bumped from a flight because of her late check-in when she was trying to retrieve her bags.
(Apparently plaintiff, a lawyer, did not respond well to stress. "The parties submitted expert psychiatric testimony explaining that plaintiff becomes sarcastic under stress.") She was strip searched at the jail when booked in.
