that her head was on/against the tray table on the back of his seat when he reclined it? He definitely acted unruly afterwards, and the airline should punish him for that ("international incident" or not). But I suspect that they and the FBI are both dragging their feet because ultimately, the initial bumping was simply an accident that she had caused: tray tables are not headrests.

From the husband's name, I'm assuming race and ethnicity had something to do with this assault.
