I assume they were under some kind of federal martime type of law...are there even federal statutes against slapping? Maybe that's why there are no charges.
Didn't I read a story here somewhere about an IAD pilot assaulting a C passenger with no UA repercussions? Apparently the IAD cops don't charge anyone for anything.
