Couple kicked off flight, lands in court for sex act on packed plane, co-passengers outraged

 

A British couple was removed from an EasyJet flight for engaging in inappropriate behavior in public, causing outrage among their fellow passengers. The couple faced a court hearing following the incident that occurred back in March. Bradley Smith and Antonia Sullivan were apprehended in the act of engaging in a sexual activity in a public setting, resulting in their removal from the flight.

 The incident occurred on an EasyJet flight from Tenerife, Spain to Bristol on March 3, where multiple witnesses reported their misconduct to the crew. Bradley Smith occupied seat 16A during the 7 am flight, with his girlfriend Antonia Sullivan seated beside him in 16B. Witnesses reported that Bradley requested a sexual act from Antonia shortly after the flight departed from Spain. The couple proceeded to cover Bradley's lap with clothing and engaged in explicit behavior on the crowded flight. 

"The witness beside them observed the activity, as well as a mother and her teenage daughter seated behind the couple," the prosecutor stated. 

After the angry mother alerted the cabin crew about the incident, Antonia initially claimed she was simply rubbing her boyfriend's leg. The couple was subsequently removed from the aircraft by law enforcement officers for interrogation.

The Verdict:

Both Bradley, aged 22, and Antonia, aged 20, admitted to engaging in a lewd act in a public location and were convicted of outraging public decency in court earlier in the week.
