Woman groping steward faces jail
Posted 31/10/2011
A woman executive faces jail for groping a male flight steward and demanding sex while drunk on a plane.
Katherine Goldberg, 25, of Ealing Common, London, grabbed the cabin crew member's crotch after drinking a pint of whisky on a Virgin Atlantic flight, reports the Daily Mail.
And yesterday she was told she faces up to ten years behind bars for the offence after magistrates ruled that the case was too serious for them to deal with.
The educational supplies executive has now been bailed to return for sentencing at Isleworth Crown Court next month.
Goldberg pleaded guilty to sexual assault and being drunk on an aircraft at Uxbridge Magistrates Court.
She had made 'strong sexual advances' to the victim during the flight from Johannesburg, South Africa to London Heathrow on August 24, the court heard.
