Passenger on Southwest banned from air travel for midflight self-abuse

Confined public space, cramped aircraft seat, mile high? No problem.

Murali Krishna Nookella, a local Internet technology employee on his way to Denver for a conference, masturbated in front of the woman sitting next to him during a Southwest Airlines flight originating in Philadelphia, according to a federal affidavit.

"You caught me," he told the shocked woman.

"Yeah, I did," she replied.

When Nookella got off Flight 228 on Monday, he was arrested and subsequently charged with obscene and indecent exposure, a misdemeanor, "by exhibiting his penis to a female passenger," according to the federal criminal complaint filed in Denver.

Before he was discovered with tissue in hand, Nookella appeared friendly toward the passenger, according to the affidavit.

1. I thought Graywarrior was on the no flight list...

:hide:

[madinmaryland]

44. Did she FREE THE DUCK??

:hide:

[Bucky]

2. "Internet technology employee"... I'm not surprised.

And to think there's a whole thread dedicated to Tommy_Carcetti's lack of social skills.

[Deep13]

3. Must have been a really long flight.

A stupid, inappropriate thing to do, obviously. Still, news people are still calling it "self-abuse" in the second decade of the 21st century?

[Initech]

4. So does this guy get to join the half-mile high club?

[unpossibles]

12. BWAHAHA! nt

[Zomby Woof]

5. Sure hope they got that jerk off the plane quickly

That kind of thing is a sticky situation which can really get out of hand.

[TZ]

6. *rimshot*

[Initech]

8. So many poorly chosen words in that sentence.

:rofl:

[friedgreentomatoes]

10. What a sentence!

Hats off !

[tango-tee]

29. Howling with laughter......

(Wooohooooo....., snort)

[BlueJazz]

43. LOL!

[RainDog]

47. eeeuuuuwwwwwww!

that was great.

[KamaAina]

7. It must have been the guy mentioned in "Slap Shot"

who would take penalties just so he could pleasure himself in the penalty box!

[lutefisk]

9. Is there any chance they washed the seat or retired that blanket?

I wonder who got that seat and blanket next? Extremely inconsiderate.
:wow:

[texanwitch]

11. He just wanted to be a member of the mile high club, solo branch.

Why not go to the rest room and do the deed.

[arcadian]

14. Mile High Kamikazes

I'm going down!!! Rata-tat-tat-tat!!!

[liberaltrucker]

16. That'd be the HALF Mile-High Club

:rofl:

[rcrush]

13. First they ban fat people now this?!

FUCK SOUTHWEST AIR

[Initech]

19. Literally in this case!

:evilgrin:

[MrCoffee]

15. Now every time you google his name, this is what you get.

Long live the intarwebs.

[pokerfan]

17. It's not illegal; it's frowned upon

Alan Garner: Gambling? Who said anything about gambling? It's not gambling when you know you're gonna win. Counting cards is a foolproof system.
Stu Price: It's also illegal.
Alan Garner: It's not illegal. It's frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.
Phil Wenneck: I'm pretty sure that's illegal too.
Alan Garner: Yeah, maybe after 9/11, where everybody got so sensitive. Thanks a lot, bin Laden.

:rofl:

[Fire Walk With Me]

18. That's the old joke.

When he's done, he wipes himself, zips up, then turns to her and asks, "Mind if I smoke?"

[trof]

20. Well, it's just a misdemeanor. Prolly do 'community service'.

If it were my wife or daughter seated next to him I'd want it to be a felony punishable by a kick in the balls.
:-)

[MrCoffee]

21. Wanking on a plane is only a misdemeanor?

Interesting. Very interesting.

[Kaleva]

27. Remind me not to sit next to you if we happen to be on the same flight!

[Captain Hilts]

22. Onanism?!?! On a plane?!?!

[Bossy Monkey]

24. I'VE HAD IT WITH THESE MOTHERFUCKIN WANKS ON THIS MOTHERFUCKIN PLANE! n/t

[tekisui]

46. .

:rofl:

[JBoy]

23. That's what happens with no meals on flights.

When they don't offer you beef or chicken, you have to choke your own.

[rug]

25. I thought the airlines charged extra for that.

Or else he misunderstood the carry on fee.

[madinmaryland]

45. Uhhh. Carryons are free on Southwest. Apparently he thought wanking was

free also!!

[rurallib]

26. Nookella? Really? that sure sounds like a porn name

[Kaleva]

28. Why is it called "self abuse"?

[MiddleFingerMom]

31. I'm too afraid of commitment to call it "self-love". n/t

[petronius]

39. Maybe he was doing it wrong?

:shrug:

[dysfunctional press]

30. why does he think that planes have bathrooms?

and forget about the tissues- let the next person clean it up.

[Kaleva]

32. Was it short? long? skinny? thick? crooked? So little info given!

[pokerfan]

35. Forget that

Was it CIRCUMCISED?!

DU needs to know!

[Gold Metal Flake]

33. What is his Free Republic screen name?

[slay]

34. Honestly officer I was sober

but my penis was shit faced drunk! :rofl:

[RagAss]

36. If I had a dime for everytime I heard of this happening....I'd have 10 cents.

[Kaleva]

37. The guy used a tissue. I need a towel.

[guitar man]

38. I'm calling bullshit on this story

Like he really got a blanket on Southwest...

:silly:

[Kaleva]

40. What lounge lizard hasn't done this at least once?

(I haven't)

[av8rdave]

41. I wouldn't call it "self abuse"

Sounds like the personal red carpet treatment to me.

[Dr. Strange]

42. Actually, no.

It was a man. No mention, though, if he had red hair.
