CHICAGO (AP) — A woman with a history of sneaking aboard airplanes has been arrested again at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. Chicago police say 64-year-old Marilyn Hartman was arrested Wednesday at an airport bus shuttle center. She’s scheduled to appear Thursday in bond court.
Hartman has tried numerous times in recent years to board planes without a ticket, succeeding at least once by flying from San Jose, California, to Los Angeles in August 2014. Hartman was arrested twice in two days last summer at O’Hare and Chicago’s Midway International Airport. She also has airport-related arrests in Arizona.
Hartman was released on probation to a Chicago nursing home in December, and ordered to avoid airports and Chicago’s Union Station. Hartman is now charged with felony probation violation and misdemeanor criminal trespass.
She must enjoy the TSA body searches.
It’s a sad gig, probably the only human physical contact she experiences. So she “gets off on it”! I love it. “The Serial Stowaway strikes again, almost!”
How about that stowaway who had his arm severed by the landing gear and died recently?
Bad idea.
Reminds me of Dr. Strangelove.
Immediately reminded me of Helen Hayes in the 1970 movie “Airport”.
So she didn’t actually try to get on a plane….she was just hanging out at the airport bus shuttle center, minding her own business.
I’m sure the TSA and DHS went into full blown high terrorist red alert when they found her trying to get a free bus ride. Thank God they caught her…I feel so much safer now.
“minding her own business” huh? That snake was just “hangin’ around” that apple tree too.
Well, I’m sure she thought that she could blow up more people at the airport bus shuttle center than she could by blowing up a plane. Damn terrorists and their inert explosives.
She probably had her inert explosives cleverly disguised as a chicken salad sandwich. (Shudder!) That’s just insidious and evil.
