Two Airport Workers Arrested For Leaking Videos Of Deadly DC Plane Crash

There is a lot of speculation and conspiracy surrounding the fatal plane crash that happened over Washinton, DC, Reagan National. Now, after two airport workers released videos of the deadly plane crash, they have been arrested for copying surveillance footage.

The two men were accused of illegally trespassing on computers and obtaining the new plane crash videos. They leaked the footage to news outlets, and CNN aired them publicly. The two men were arrested and detained for their involvement.

The videos show two new angles of the plane crash over DC Reagan National Airport. As the plane transporting many members of the figure skating team comes into land, the Black Hawk helicopter can be seen flying directly into its landing path.

For reasons that are still unclear, there is no line of sight for the Black Hawk and plane. The inevitable happens, and the two aircraft smash into one another.

The new angle seen in the videos shows the plane and helicopter spiraling into the Potomac River. All passengers aboard both the helicopter and plane died in the incident.

Two Men Accused Of Theft After Releasing New Videos Of DC Plane Crash

Due to their alleged illegal acquisition of the plane crash videos, the airport workers were taken in. Mohamed Lamine Mbengue, 21, of Rockville Maryland was charged Friday and Jonathan Savoy, 45, of Upper Marlboro, Maryland, was charged Sunday.

However, whatever they were charged with clearly didn't stick. Mbengue was booked into Arlington County Adult Detention Center and later released while Savoy was issued a summons by the magistrate and also released.

The two videos of the deadly DC plane crash acquired by the airport workers are still available online. Many people are asking how it was possible for an aircraft as nimble as a Black Hawk to collide with a passenger jet. The airspace above Reagan National Airport is crowded, but this kind of situation should be almost impossible.

A full investigation is being performed by a federal agency. There have been no survivors from the fatal DC plane crash. The Black Hawk Helicopter was being flown by Army Capt. Rebecca Lobach, Chief Warrant Officer 2 Andrew Eaves and Staff Sgt. Ryan O'Hara. None of them have survived the incident.

    Who writes this stuff? They repeatedly say there were two passengers aboard. No, you say there were only two aboard---- the pilot and one passenger--- and both died in the crash. Learn some high school English.

  2. Christopher Plumley says:

    The point is a plane crashed and 2 died.

    How to make a sensational story out of a tragic but fairly common event, similar to: "Man killed in automobile accident in California." Save that headline, you'll need it tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day, etc., etc.

    Pilot error, 95% of small plane crashes. I am a pilot. I know.

    The number was not in question. Pointless reply.
