[Butch Cassidy Slept Here]

So Federal authorities are willing to devote a lot of time to "potty crime," or, crapping out of your class. See this article:

Some questions come to mind: Isn't it the FA that decides how far a case like this will go? After all is there, really, any effort made to verify the claims of the FA? Were pictures of the massive cuts, abrasions, and major bruises inflicted in that grevious "assault" ever produced? I don't think so. So why couldn't Delta have let this go at an administrative fine? A clear message would have been sent that unauthorized use of the business class lav doesn't come cheap. Could Delta's desire really have been motivated by this man's modest resources--no ability to retain an expensive attorney and investigators, no possibility of a lawsuit. Or, put another way, would Delta have been so quick to prosecute if Victoria Osteen had been this passenger? See article below on Victoria Osteen. As you'll note Osteen got off with a $3,000 fine for her transgression. Some punishment! I'm sure she spends that much a month on makeup!

I think it's more of a Delta rule about not using the lav outside your class. If TSA really had such a rule why would it apply only to international flights? So using the "wrong" lav on a domestic flight is LESS of a risk??

Evidently harassing abortion clinics is ok. Use the wrong lav on a plane? Now you're REALLY in trouble!

I shall await the impassioned defense of Delta, and that poor abused FA, by the airline sympathizers, et al.
