12:32 a.m., the officer ran to the gate and saw the plane backing out of the port. It was too late. No way, the airline will turn that plane around and no way air traffic will stop the flight without some dollars on the table. Then he saw a woman arguing with the gate attendant. He went over to see what it was. “My father is dying, I need to get on that plane. I left very early for the airport and still was late, this miserable traffic here.” The gate attendant told her, “we have a flight leaving in six hours that should be fine and we gave your seat to someone else so there’s no place to sit”. The woman was sobbing at this point, “no, no, no.” The officer asked the gate attendant, “actually I am here to apprehend a dangerous murderer who is on your plane, so if you get the plane to turn around for her, she’ll catch her flight, she can sit in his seat, and I’ll have my criminal. The gate attendant spoke into the walkie talkie and the officer heard certain oaths come out of the walkie talkie and then he saw the plane stop and lurch back toward the portal. “Muchas gracias, senorita”, the officer said smiling noting that he had to come back with some flowers for this gal.

One the plane had stopped, the officer stepped on board, and knowing which seat Mr. Jenkins was sitting in, he went straight there. “Senor Jenkins, may I see your passport please?”

Jack Jenkins, Jr. looked up at that point with a look of resignation in his eyes. “Yeah, its me”. “Stand up, Senor”, the officer barked. Jenkins stood up slowly and slid out from the seat. He was caught and there was no where to go especially with a cop with a gun on him. “Easy, officer, I’ll comply” he said as he held out his hands to get cuffed.

At that point, the officer put the handcuffs on Jack Jenkins, Jr. and led him to the headquarters for the Airport Police. As he was walking, he grabbed his walkie-talkie, “suspect apprehended and bringing him in”. When they reached police headquarters, Officer Juarez called the State Police, “we have your prisoner”, he told Dolores, “who’s coming to get him”. “I’ll have Officer Morales come by”. After she hung up the phone, she radioed Officer Morales. “We have a prisoner to transport here to headquarters, a Jack Jenkins, Jr.”. Then she called Inspector Gonzales. “Hello Inspector, we have apprehended a suspect, wanted in America. You need to make him not want to fight extradition”.
