Couple knowingly boards SFO flight to Hawaii after positive COVID-19 tests
I wonder if we're going to see more of this.Wesley Moribe and Courtney Peterson, both 46, of Wailua, Hawaii, reportedly boarded a United flight on Nov. 29 despite having tested positive for COVID-19 and "placing the passengers of the flight in danger of death," according to the Kauai Police Department. They had a 4-year-old child in tow.
The flight originated at San Francisco International Airport where the pair both tested positive for COVID-19. They were told by the Quarantine Station at the airport to isolate and not to board a plane bound for Kauai, but they did anyway.
After the plane landed at the Lihue Airport, the pair were identified and apprehended by police.
The couple were charged with reckless endangerment and posted bail that was set at $1,000 each. The child was released into the care of a family member and Child Protective Services was notified, according to police.
