FWIW, she's a well-experienced grifter when it comes to this stuff...

Inside the endless gate-crashing saga of “serial stowaway” Marilyn Hartman.

The Hartman canon, in fact, contains numerous small acts of leniency and compassion by law-enforcement officials. In Seattle, where Hartman in 2013 attempted to enter a plane using someone else's boarding pass (a tactic she also deployed in 2009 in Hawaii and last year at SFO), police denoted her offense as "mental instability." She was escorted to the light rail station, and no charges were filed. Police in San Francisco gave her BART tickets and a ride back to her SRO hotel room after admonishing her at the airport. The cop who in 2010 caught Hartman—then a reentry student at the University of Hawaii—dozing "on top of the giant chair" in front of a Kauai furniture store politely suggested that she visit a nearby shelter. Last March, an Alameda County sheriff's deputy intercepted Hartman shambling along Oakland's Airport Drive in the wee hours. She told him she intended to "get" a ticket to Hawaii. "I asked Hartman if she had any money and she showed me $4," the deputy wrote in the subsequent incident report. "I asked her if she believed $4 would be sufficient to buy a ticket to go to Hawaii. Hartman said, 'You're right. You're right. I'll just go back to the BART station.'" The deputy drove her to the Coliseum BART station. It was closed, so he drove her to Broadway and 14th Streets, where she caught the 800 bus back to the city. ...

"She did not qualify as having a major mental illness," says San Mateo County district attorney Steve Wagstaffe, who could have all but installed a revolving door in the county jail for Hartman during her 2014 assault on SFO. Documents reveal that Hartman has been listed as having depression and post-traumatic stress disorder—but all that qualified her for was compassionate gestures. "We were feeling sympathy for this woman," the DA continues. "Let's put her on probation. We let her go off to a home here in Redwood City where they can take in people who have mental health issues. She was there two days and she walked out. She didn't like it."

It wasn't the first time. Hartman has fled voluntary treatment facilities around the nation. When she absconded from Redwood City last spring, however, she was violating probation. "We found her very quickly," Wagstaffe says with a wan chuckle. "She doesn't run and she doesn't hide." Hartman has been described in official documents as "extremely polite" by officers apprehending her for a bevy of crimes. But here "the other side of her came out," the DA says. "She cursed the probation officer, who said she was just trying to help. And, with obscene language, [Hartman] said she doesn't want anybody's help."

Not long thereafter, Hartman violated probation again. On August 4 of last year, she told police in Los Angeles that she'd chosen to travel from San Jose International Airport since it would "be easier" there to sneak onto a plane—which was, demonstrably, the case. Wagstaffe says L.A. prosecutors hinted that Hartman could be sent north after violating probation. But no dice: "With good humor, we said to them, 'Yeah. She's in L.A. now,'" he recalls. "Good luck and God bless."

Even before reading the article I knew it would be a white woman.
Were it a black woman...under the jail.

seems a bit inappropriate for someone security and gate-people let slip right by.

they couldn't even identify here as being there, never mind recognize her face!

Do she use the man’s wallet trick?

There's something wrong with security if people can sneak around and through the TSA and airlines' checkpoints. On the other hand, it highlights some of the ineptness of the TSA.

Hey, brooklynite, I have a question. How do you change a link's URL from the https/ gobbledygook to such a neat little link? Thanks, in advance.

from Panama 2 weeks ago. Left for airport at 5 AM, so hotel gave us coffee, a sweet roll, and a banana. I stuck the banana in my purse and completely forgot about it until I was in the immigration/customs line in Miami. Being stupid, I attempted to give it to the officer to dispose of. Instead, I had to get my luggage and travel to the bowels of the airport to see the US Dept.of Agriculture. After answering many questions and thinking they would rifle through my luggage, the guy says there's no problem with having a banana from Panama and gives it back to me! Only a problem with fruit from certain countries, but Customs didn't know.
