JetBlue flight attendant Steven Slater, who was idiotically turned into a national hero before all the facts were spilled out for his beer run and exit down the airplane emergency slide, is being exposed for the fraud he is, as more and more passengers from the plane are being questioned about what exactly happened on that flight.

Their stories aren’t exactly matching up with his…at all:

“A significant number of people said he had the cut before he boarded the plane, and several other passengers said he was acting erratically on the flight,” the source said.

Slater should be prosecuted and likely will be if Queens DA Richard Brown’s statement can be believed:

Queens DA Richard Brown noted the “seriousness of the crime,” saying Slater’s deployment of the inflatable chute took the plane out of service, could have caused a serious injury to people below, and could have caused passengers to panic.

Slater has refused to talk to Jet Blue to date according to the company.  His actions were idiotic under any circumstances, and he’s being exposed for being a liar and massive fraud.  He should be prosecuted to the fullest extend of the law.
