Man banned from flying after masturbating multiple times during a flight

A Southwest Airlines passenger is banned for life and facing federal charges after masturbating multiple times during a flight.

During Southwest flight 3814 on April 2nd from Seattle, Washington to Phoenix, Arizona, Antonio Sherrodd McGarity pulled down his pants shortly after takeoff and began pleasuring himself.

He was seated next to a female passenger, who took photos of the act that she later turned over to authorities. After about an hour of masturbating, McGarity fell into a slumber.

That is when the woman had her seat moved after alerting a flight attendant to what happened, reportedly seeing the man masturbate four times.

McGarity was arrested by the Phoenix Police Department on Saturday once the flight landed at Sky Harbor International Airport. He told authorities that he thought jerking off on a plane was “kinky” and maintained that the female passenger was not uncomfortable with what he was doing. He claims he asked her permission before he began his disturbing self-care routine, to which she allegedly responded, “it really doesn’t matter.”
