Delta Employee Arrested at Airport on Sex Charge
The Associated Press


ATLANTA (AP) -- An employee of Delta Air Lines has been suspended following
his arrest on a sex charge at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International
Airport. 

Atlanta police say 48-year-old James Edmond Westbrook of Long Beach, New
York, was arrested late yesterday when he propositioned an undercover police
officer at an airport bathroom. The police report says Westbrook was at a
urinal when he turned and exposed himself to an undercover officer. Delta
issued a statement saying that Westbrook has been suspended while the matter
is investigated. 

Westbrook's arrest follows the arrest of former MARTA board chairman Ed Wall
earlier this month. Wall was arrested for public indecency, a misdemeanor,
after police said he had oral sex with a man in an airport bathroom. 

Wall has since stepped down as chairman of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid
Transit Authority. Wall maintains his client's innocence. 

The investigation into sex acts being performed in airport bathrooms began
in December when Atlanta police formed a task force to catch baggage
thieves. The latest arrest brings the total of such arrests to 30.
