Hell breaks loose on plane as passenger is REMOVED from a flight - as trivial reason for altercation with airline crew emerges
A 28-year-old woman has been booted from a domestic flight following a bizarre stoush with cabin crew staff.
Virgin airline crew reported dealing with a woman who began acting erratically on a flight bound for Melbourne from Perth on Friday.
Footage from the incident showed the woman beginning to argue with a flight attendant while the plane was still on the tarmac.
The woman had reportedly been asked to remove a bum bag for the flight.
'You're telling me to take my clothes off on a plane, f*** off,' she said in the footage.
The barrage appeared to have been directed at an air hostess.
'No I didn't say that... you had a bum bag on, in the event of an evacuation we need to make sure you're safe and everyone else is safe,' the attendant responded.
'That's alright the (Australian Federal Police) will deal with you.'
Another crew member could then be seen ushering the stewardess away.
Officers of the Australian Federal Police (AFP) then boarded the plane.
Seven News reported the woman was hauled off the plane and charged by AFP officers.
'The Perth woman was spoken to and removed from the plane without incident,' an AFP spokeswoman said.
The woman will be issued with a summons to appear in court at a later date.

Major update after former AFL player was accused child sex offences
Former West Coast Eagles footballer Josh Hill has pleaded not guilty to seven historic child sex offences linked to a 15-year-old girl. The 36-year-old was charged with three counts of indecent dealings with a child aged 13-16 years old and four counts of sexually penetrating a child aged 13-16. Police allege the offending occurred at the height of Mr Hill's career, in Broome in December 2015 and in Scarborough, Perth in January 2016. Hill appeared via video link in Broome Magistrates Court on Monday and entered his not guilty plea to all seven charges, reported the ABC. He is on bail and appeared on the link from Melbourne. Magistrate Deen Potter read the charges to Mr Hill and noted each of the alleged offences involved a 15-year-old child. Hill did not speak aside from entering his pleas. The 36-year-old also on Monday had his bail extended under the existing conditions. His lawyer signalled his intention to apply for a variation, seeking permission for Mr Hill to attend court remotely. Hill, who was born in Subiaco, was drafted by the Western Bulldogs as pick No 61 in the 2006 National Draft before making his debut in the 2007 season. He would go on to play 66 games for the Victorian side before being traded to the West Coast in 2012, where he would return 151 goals in 107 matches, before being delisted by the footy club at the end of the 2017 season. Hill was stood down from his role with the First Peoples' Assembly of Victoria and had his contract with a local footy club terminated after he was charged with the alleged child sex offences in February. The father-of-two was stood down from his role as a youth coordinator for the First Peoples' Assembly of Victoria, reported The Herald Sun at the time. 'We have been informed of a matter involving serious interstate criminal charges relating to an employee. We are very concerned about this news,' a spokesperson for the First People's Assembly said. He had signed for Point Cook football club in January, but the football club moved to sever ties with the former Eagles forward. 'The Point Cook Football Club's executives were yesterday made aware of developments and met this morning in relation to senior men's player Josh Hill; including that he has been charged by Western Australian Police with offences that are now before the courts,' a club statement said at the time. 'The club acknowledges the importance of the presumption of innocence in this case and also the need to treat all parties with respect and understanding.' The case is scheduled to return to the Broome District Court on August 19.

Bizarre twist after Aussie influencer was accused of poisoning her baby girl for social media likes
A social media influencer who allegedly drugged her baby for donations has had her case delayed due to pending DNA evidence after the prosecution tendered a huge evidence brief. The 34-year-old Sunshine Coast mother is alleged to have poisoned the infant over the course of several months while obtaining social media notoriety and financial gain from claims the child was battling a potentially fatal illness. The case has so many medical documents the woman's solicitor has had to hire specialist staff, a magistrate has heard. She was charged with five counts of administering poison with intent to harm, three counts of preparation to commit crimes with dangerous things, a single count each of torture, making child exploitation material and fraud. Police have alleged the woman –who cannot be named for legal reasons – earned more than $60,000 from a GoFundMe campaign to 'assist' her child. That money has since been refunded to donors. They also alleged the woman went to great lengths to obtain unauthorised and prescription medications to give her child. She allegedly covered for the alleged actions by using leftover medicine for another member of the household. The alleged abuse was detected on October 15, 2024 after the girl was admitted to a Brisbane hospital suffering a serious medical episode. Lawyer Mathew Cuskelly, acting on behalf of the woman, requested an eight-week adjournment at Brisbane Magistrates Court on Monday in order to assess a brief of evidence provided by the prosecution. He said he had hired an additional assistant with a medical background to review 'quite a voluminous amount of medical documentation', according to the Courier Mail. Some of the brief had been provided by the prosecution earlier this month. 'It is quite a large and complex brief,' he said. A prosecutor divulged some material was yet to be disclosed, including material which related to the DNA testing of a pill collected from a hospital and separate materials relating to an alleged breach of bail. The court heard the 34-year-old had not been charged over a breach of bail, but her ex-partner previously made the claim in a statement to police. Mr Cuskelly at the time argued his client had not been involved in any such bail breach and requested Queensland police provide the former partner's statement. Deputy Chief Magistrate Anthony Gett said he would place the case on the DNA call over because of the outstanding DNA material. The list was created last December to manage criminal cases at the committal phase which can get delayed purely on account of pending DNA evidence. The courts adjourned the matter until August 1 for a mention the woman does not have to attend.

EXCLUSIVE Bombshell move from behind bars by Corbie Walpole who set her male friend on FIRE after he made a 'misogynistic' remark
A woman jailed for four and a half years for setting her childhood friend on fire after he made what she deemed misogynistic comments is now appealing against the length of her sentence. Corbie Walpole had originally hoped to receive some form of non-custodial punishment for her senseless crime but was put away for a maximum of seven years and six months. The 24-year-old electrician pleaded guilty in the NSW District Court to one count of burn, maim, disfigure or disable a person by use of a corrosive fluid and learnt her fate on May 22. Judge Jennifer English rejected any suggestion Walpole had been provoked when she attacked 22-year-old Jake Loader in an act of 'destructive and horrifically painful violence'. 'It is never easy to send a young person, particularly a young woman, to jail,' Judge English said, sitting in Albury on the NSW-Victoria border. 'But where appropriate, it is something that must be done.' It can now be revealed Walpole filed a notice of intention to appeal with the Court of Criminal Appeal on June 13, challenging the severity of her sentence. Daily Mail Australia captured some of Walpole's final moments of freedom - photographing the smiling tradie catching up with loved ones over coffee as she frolicked in a park the day before she was locked up. Walpole had faced a maximum sentence of 25 years for setting Mr Loader ablaze as he sat on a chair in her backyard at Howlong, about 30km west of Albury, early last year. The pair met when Mr Loader went to boarding school at St Paul's College at Walla Walla, about 40km north of Albury, and had been friends for at least nine years. Mr Loader, who worked mustering cattle in Queensland, was in Howlong for a short break and joined old friends, including Walpole, for a night out which included celebrating a 21st birthday. Walpole claimed Mr Loader had been baiting her before she poured 5 litres of petrol over his head and used a cigarette lighter to turn him into a human torch. 'He was antagonising me,' she told the court. 'He told me to go to the kitchen where I belong because I'm a girl. I gave it back to him and called him a misogynist.' Judge English rejected any suggestion Walpole - who claimed she had felt 'challenged and disrespected in her own home' - had been goaded into doing what she did. 'I find that the assault upon the victim was unprovoked,' the judge said. Walpole wiped tears from her eyes as Judge English recounted the night that forever changed Mr Loader's life. Mr Loader was 22 and Walpole was 23 when they began drinking with mates about 8pm on January 6, 2024, at Howlong Golf Resort. Two hours later they went to a 21st birthday party at Howlong, then kicked on to a house party at North Albury, and returned to the birthday gathering about 2am. The group's final stop was Walpole's home, where they settled into the backyard about 4am. Some of the revellers, including Walpole, had taken cocaine earlier in the evening and most had retired to the Russell Street house, where Walpole's partner was sleeping, within an hour. Judge English said Walpole had begun drinking at 5pm, downing bottles of cider, schooners of Canadian Club and Bacardi and cola, and cans of Hard Solo. An expert estimated Walpole had consumed 23 to 35 standard drinks over 12 hours and would have had a blood alcohol level between 0.22 and 0.38. In all that time she had eaten only two slices of pizza. Walpole claimed Mr Loader had been antagonising her throughout the evening, trying to wrestle her and wake her sleeping boyfriend. 'He was really pushing my buttons,' she said. 'I was feeling overwhelmed by [Mr Loader's] presence, and I didn't know what to do.' Walpole snapped when Mr Loader said she should be in the kitchen baking scones, rather than out drinking with boys. Walpole had a can of Hard Solo in her hand when she erupted. Walpole got up from an outdoor table and went to her garage where she collected a 5 litre jerry can of fuel, went back to the table, poured the petrol over the seated Mr Loader and waved a cigarette lighter around. 'I'll do it,' Walpole said. 'I'll do it.' Mr Loader replied: 'Go on, do it.' Walpole carried out the threat and Mr Loader was immediately engulfed in flames. Mr Loader, who ran around the yard screaming, tried to pull off his shirt but the melted fabric stuck to his skin. Two male friends extinguished the fire by plunging Mr Loader into a small pool. Walpole held her head in her hands and said: 'What the f*** have I done? He was telling me to do it.' Mr Loader was taken by ambulance to Albury Hospital then flown to The Alfred in Melbourne where he spent eight days in a coma, 74 days in the burns unit, and underwent 10 operations. He had suffered third degree burns to 55 per cent of his body and less severe injuries to an additional six per cent. Those injuries were spread across his back, chest, arms, legs and face. Judge English described Walpole's deeds as 'deliberate acts committed in the presence of others'. 'For those present it must have been truly horrific to be witness to,' she said. 'It was an act of immediate, destructive and horrifically painful violence.' Mr Loader can no longer expose his skin to the sun and his body struggles to regulate its temperature because his sweat glands were burnt off. 'It will affect the rest of my life,' Mr Loader said in a statement read by Crown prosecutor Max Pincott. At a pre-sentence hearing, Walpole wept on in the witness box as she unsuccessfully attempted to explain what she had done. 'I wasn't thinking,' she repeatedly said when asked about her actions. 'I didn't want to injure Jake.' Judge English did not accept Walpole's contention she was unaware putting a cigarette lighter to a man soaked in petrol would set him ablaze. 'I find that position difficult to believe,' she said. Judge English also rejected Walpole's claim she had set out to scare Mr Loader, rather than harm him. 'She threatened to set fire to the victim and she did exactly that,' she said. Further, Walpole should have known the consequences of lighting the petrol would likely be catastrophic - 'which is exactly what occurred'. Judge English found Walpole had engaged in 'nothing short of drug and alcohol-fuelled violence' rather than becoming aggressive due to her depression. Despite Walpole having excellent prospects of rehabilitation and being highly unlikely to reoffend, Judge English said no sentence other than full-time custody would be appropriate for her offending.
