There is different report here, with a little better reporting, though without anyone but the woman's side.

Note, she was arrested for not complying wiht the police officers order to leave. The officer told her to leave or be arrested.

How does one tell a police officer "go ahead and arrest me" then claim that JetBlue got them into this mess? Take some responsibility for your actions.:rolleyes:

The kicker is that she was never actually arrested, just bullied by the cops.

Without a citation or arrest made, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department doesn't have documentation of the incident, officer Jay Rivera said.

She was apparently threatened with arrest only after she demanded the names of the JetBlue employees involved and a written document of their threat to ban her from flying B6 and/or all other airlines. A perfectly reasonable request, because you know that if she called back the next day requesting such information or claiming she was threatened, customer service would claim it was impossible to track down the people involved.

She made that request, and the cop told her to leave or be arrested. So the cop essentially arrested her for trying to collect the information needed to stand up for herself.

The cop's job at the airport is not to be the strong-man for abusive airline employees on power trips. :mad: After reviewing the video and verifying the woman's story with a few other pax, the airline employees should be criminally charged with filing a false police report, and fired. The cop should just be fired.
