I don't, but in this case, Jetblue's story just doesn't ring true.
The girl checked in, received a boarding pass, and boarded the plane before Jetblue suddenly discovered that she was on the watch list? They weren't alerted when she checked in, was issued her boarding pass, or her boarding pass was scanned at boarding, but suddenly a computer 'glitch' surfaces and...what? Sends an alert to the GA warning that someone on the watch list has just boarded? Really? Prints an asterisk by her name on the final pax manifest?
I think there was a 'glitch' all right, but I don't believe it had anything to do with Jetblue's computers.
