Summary
A jury in Brooklyn convicted Svetlana Dali, a 57-year-old Russian citizen, for sneaking onto a flight from New York to Paris without a boarding pass after evading security at JFK Airport. Dali, who had previously been turned away at a TSA checkpoint, managed to blend in with airline staff and hid in a bathroom on the plane until nearing Paris, where she was apprehended. Facing up to six months in prison, Dali had been in custody for over five months and previously attempted to stow away at other airports, raising concerns about her security breaches.
