Man jailed after stripping naked at US airport security and rubbing his underwear in officer's face

A man in the US has been sentenced to 33 months in prison after performing a “lewd” assault on an airport security officer. George Stevens, 38, of South Carolina, pleaded guilty to interference with security screening personnel and assault of a federal officer. According to court documents, the incident occurred on July 15, 2023, at Indianapolis International Airport. Stevens was stopped by a Transportation Security Officer (TSO) and was given a pat-down. After first complying it seems Stevens became more irate and appeared drunk. He called the TSO a “freak” four times before repeating “I don’t have nothing” and “I’m just trying to get home”. After “shaking his buttocks” at the guards he then stripped off his jeans to expose his bum and genitals. On removing his underwear he then started “forcibly pressing it into the supervisor’s face”, according to the US Attorney’s Office. “The entirety of Stevens’ lewd assault occurred in full view of the travelling public, including families with small children, who were attempting to navigate the security checkpoint and get to their flights.”<br/>
