Rather than lock her up, though, a magistrate decided that 200 hours of community service and a $4,500 fine would be enough. Though only four of the six charges against Campbell were pursued, the Crown Prosecution Service wasn't going easy on her, its director Nazir Afzal said:
Ms. Campbell was aggressive, hostile and violent to people who were simply trying to do their jobs. Her behavior fell far short of what is acceptable.
So will British Airways will take her off its blacklist after she serves her sentence?
She's now been officially charged in London with assaulting a policeman, disorderly conduct and "using threatening behavior and abusive words to cabin crew." Her trial starts June 20, and she's facing a maximum sentence of six months in jail plus a five-figure fee if convicted on all counts.
Let this be a lesson to you, frustrated fliers: No matter how bad Terminal 5 may suck, it's probably better than a half-year "holiday" in a British prison.
Supermodel Naomi Campbell was arrested yesterday for throwing a temper tantrum at Heathrow Airport. Allegedly, Campbell, who once beat an assistant with a telephone and supposedly threw a jewel-encrusted Blackberry at her assistant, flew into a rage while boarding the plane and started yelling at the gate staff. When security showed up, she spit at them and may have even punched them.
The outburst was supposedly brought on by Campbell's discovery that one of her three bags did not make it on the plane. Yup, she fell prey to the madness of Terminal 5. Jaunted doesn't recommend dealing with lost luggage in this manner, even if you are a supermodel.
