Selma Blair’s representatives say she didn’t intend to hurt anyone on flight that led to her arrest
Selma Blair's representatives have released a statement denying allegations that she intended to harm anyone during a flight and the subsequent incident where she allegedly assaulted two flight attendants, a police officer, and a nurse. According to the statement, Blair experienced a medical emergency on the Delta flight from Los Angeles to New York and did not intend to cause harm.
The statement also explained that Blair has multiple sclerosis and pseudobulbar affect, a neurological condition resulting from her multiple sclerosis, which may have influenced how her medical episode was perceived by others. The authorities took Blair's service dog from her during the incident. Blair has previously apologized for making regrettable statements during a flight from Cancun to Los Angeles in 2016, where she had consumed alcohol and medication, causing her to black out.
