After the DC plane crash Airport employees were charged for leaking footage of the plane collision

Two employees of the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority have been charged with leaking official footage of a plane collision.  On American Airlines Flight 5342 an Army UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter collided in midair on January 29 close to Washington Reagan National Airport. 

The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA) has accused two of releasing official airport video showing the collision between American Airlines Flight 5342 and an Army UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter over the Potomac River. 

Both men are accused of making an unauthorized copy of Airports Authority documents about the jet crash on January 29, according to MWAA. FOX 5 D.C. stated that CNN was given access to the leaked video.

Authorities imprisoned Mohamed Lamine Mbengue, 21, of Rockville, Maryland, on January 31 on suspicion of computer trespass. This is a misdemeanor, according to a Fox News story. Jonathan Savoy, 45, of Upper Marlboro, Maryland, was arrested on the same accusation following additional investigations.

In a statement, Fox News Digital cited MWAA as saying that Mbengue was booked into the Arlington County Adult Detention Center. It happens before being released on his own recognizance, while Savoy was freed on a magistrate’s summons.

According to Arlington County General District Court court records, Mbengue’s Monday arraignment was postponed, and as of Tuesday, no new date had been established.

Authorities are still trying to identify all of the victims of the deadly collision. That claimed 67 lives and removed wreckage from the Potomac River. The cause of the incident is still being investigated by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB).
