JetBlue flight attendant Steven Slater got into a heated argument with a passenger Monday after landing at JFK airport. He then let loose with a curse-filled tirade on the plane's PA system, grabbed a beer and his two bags and slid to an escape on an emergency slide. Cops later found him in bed with his lover.
Slater's lawyer said he is under stress because his mother has lung cancer. He remains in custody after a judge set $2,500 bail this morning.
