JetBlue pilot found not guilty - KYTX CBS 19 Tyler Longview News Weather Sports

(CNN) - The JetBlue pilot who had that mid-air meltdown in March, has been found not guilty by reason of insanity.

A federal judge in Amarillo handed down the order Tuesday during a bench trial. Clayton Osbon will be sent back to a federal mental health facility in Fort Worth for further examination. He's expected to be brought back to Amarillo in August for another hearing.

In March, Osbon left the cockpit and ranted incoherently about religion, terrorists, the September 11th attacks and the plane crashing. The flight, en route from New York to Las Vegas, made an emergency landing in Amarillo.
