And he was talking to himself in a low yet agitated voice, switching from subject to subject in what Weaver would later remember as “a stream of gibberish.” The young woman arched an eyebrow. The jet sat on the runway for close to an hour, during which the passenger only grew louder and began straying off on scary tangents — including Osama bin Laden and the possibility that a bomb had been planted on board. Weaver says now that she should have alerted a flight attendant at this point, that perhaps he could have been removed while the plane was still on the ground. But before she knew it they were up in the air, so she focused her at- tention on her 31⁄2-year-old son, engaging him in heightened con- versation in an effort to drown out the chatter behind them.

  • Alonzo Spellman : Crim
    IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA UNITED STATES OF AMERICA : : v. : : ALONZO SPELLMAN : CRIM. NO. 02-494 MEMORANDUM Dalzell, J. February 4, 2003 On January 7, 2003, defendant Alonzo Spellman pleaded guilty to interference with flight attendants and crew members, in violation of 49 U.S.C. § 46504, and to two counts of simple assault on an aircraft, in violation of 49 U.S.C. § 46506, all arising from what can only be described as every air passenger's and crew member's nightmare on Delta Flight 2038 on July 23, 2002. At Spellman's sentencing yesterday, we were presented with the unusual coincidence of (a) the Government's motion for upward departure and (b) the defendant's motion for downward departure. Thus, for different reasons, both the Government and the defendant agree that Spellman's case is outside of the Sentencing Guidelines "heartland", and our task yesterday was to determine whether either of them was right. This Memorandum amplifies the findings of fact and conclusions of law we made on the record at the close of the protracted hearing yesterday. Factual Findings It is undisputed that Alonzo Spellman is a veteran of the National Football League. After graduating from Ohio State University, where he was first-team AP All-Big Ten, Spellman starting in 1993 played with the Chicago Bears, where as a defensive end in 1995 he set a club record for sacks in consecutive games.1 He later signed with the Dallas Cowboys, and then played for the Detroit Lions until his release for tardiness at practices.
