Two employees at the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority have been arrested over leaking video of an American Airlines passenger jet colliding with an Army helicopter to far-left CNN.
Fox 5 DC reported on Monday 21-year-old Mohamed Lamine Mbengue of Rockville, Maryland was arrested on Jan. 31 and charged with computer trespass under Virginia law. A MWAA spokesperson said he booked into the Arlington County Adult Detention Center and was later released.
Authorities then charged 45-year-old Jonathan Savoy of Upper Marlboro, Maryland, with computer trespass on Feb. 2. A magistrate judge later released him on a summons.
Fox 5 DC notes that authorities refused to say whether additional individuals could face charges as the investigation unfolds. It’s also unclear whether the employees sold the video to the news station or gave it away for free.
Imagine the headaches for CNN if they coughed up money for the exclusive video.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, a tragic incident unfolded at Reagan National Airport last Wednesday night where an American Airlines passenger jet collided with a Blackhawk helicopter during landing.
All 64 passengers in the jet were killed. The three pilots in the Blackhawk helicopter also died in the explosive crash.
An FAA report following the incident showed that staffing at DCA Air Traffic Control Tower was “not normal” at the time of the collision. one controller was overseeing both helicopter and airplane traffic when, typically, one controller focuses on helicopter activity.
Democrats and their corporate media allies later blamed Trump even though there have been aviation staffing shortages for years because of DEI policies first implemented under the Obama regime.
The FAA has denied 1,000 air traffic controller applicants because they were ‘too white’ and now 285 of the 313 air traffic control facilities are dealing with staffing shortages.
In addition, one of the Blackhawk helicopter co-pilots was revealed to be 28-year-old Rebecca Lobach, a White House aide for Joe Biden. Lobach’s name was initially withheld at the request of her family.
But as Jim Hoft reported, her entire social media was scrubbed before the Army released her name, leading Americans to wonder what the government was hiding.
This latest news regarding the arrest of these two airport employees likely will just raise more questions with Americans as well.
