TENNESSEE PHYSICIAN SENTENCED FOR CALLING IN BOMB THREATS TO DELAY FLIGHT
Physician Called 9-1-1 Three Times From Sea-Tac Gate in Effort to Make Flight to Memphis

KOU WEI CHIU, 32, of Nashville, Tennessee, was sentenced today in U.S. District Court in Seattle to three years of probation, 500 hours of community service, and $81,249 in restitution for the felony offense of False Information and Threats.

In November 2007, CHIU pleaded guilty, admitting that on July 25, 2007, he was late for his plane, and called in bomb threats to try to get the plane held at the gate.

U.S. District Judge Richard A. Jones said at sentencing, “Anytime a person makes reference to a bomb in association with a plane, even in jest, it conjures fear of a repeat of the 9/11 attacks.”

However, Judge Jones found that CHIU’s actions were an aberration, driven by his mental health. Judge Jones ordered that the 500 hours of community service be served providing medical care to those who cannot afford to pay for care. Dr. Chiu had been providing free medical assistance to low income individuals since his arrest in this case.

I agree. What a slave!

I like the sentence!

So how is he traveling to his next destination?

Seems I recall cases where airline passengers acted up
in flight and had to be restrained for the duration or be
put off at an unscheduled stop. If memory serves, there
were instances where the offenders were black-balled by the
airlines and denied future flight privileges.

DAMN FOREIGNERS!

YEA LET HIM CHIU ON THAT FOR AWHILE LOL
