Imagine napping on a domestic flight, and waking up to police threatening you with an FBI report and jail time.
That's what queer artist Mykki Blanco claims happened on a Delta flight Friday from Toronto to Detroit after a passenger complained he was "not comfortable" next to Blanco--who was asleep.
The musician broke down the exchange on Twitter last night.
Delta later reached out to Blanco about the incident with a message of support and a promise to investigate.
