“The victim stated that she was in shock and did not know what to do. She looked away and pulled her jacket over her head and body. The victim did her best to ignore Robinson and what he was doing, but she continued to feel the man move,” the affidavit continues.
“About five minutes before landing, Robinson placed his hand on the victim’s upper thigh, who asked Robinson why he was touching her. Robinson withdrew his hand and looked out the window.”
The victim alerted a fellow traveler, to a flight attendant, and finally to a gate agent about the crime.
He later told him told the FBI Investigating Special Agent that he first realized Robinson was exposing himself when he heard the sound of his pants coming open.
The US Attorney’s Office suggested that Robinson’s behavior as he exited the plane was also revealing.
“During the deplaning process, the victim approached a flight attendant about the incident, but was unable to point the finger at Robinson due to the volume of disembarking passengers,” said a press release.
“Security footage captured Robinson, leaving the secure area of the terminal , repeatedly looking back in the direction of where he came from while heading to the level of the baggage carousel.”
The Justice Department previously noted that Robinson “quickly removed two suitcases” from the baggage carousel” and “joined a group of two women and two men who they were already there.”
US Magistrate Judge Marianne B. Bowler set the sentence for March 2, months after the new year, but just under a year after the crime was committed. Robinson faces up to 800 days behind bars. He also faces a possible fine of $5, dollars and one year of supervised release.
