Flight Incident Leads to Selma Blair's Arrest

Actor Selma Blair's representatives have denied any intent to harm others during a recent flight incident that led to her arrest.

According to a statement released by Blair's team, she did not intend to cause any harm on the Delta flight from Los Angeles to New York on Sunday, where she allegedly assaulted two flight attendants, a police officer, and a nurse. The statement aims to counter what it describes as inaccurate and unsympathetic portrayals of Blair.

The representatives claim that Blair experienced a medical emergency during the flight, which led to her actions. They specifically deny allegations that she attempted to open the door of the aircraft, stating that there was no such attempt made.

Blair's condition is mentioned in the statement as a possible explanation for her behavior. The statement does not explicitly mention multiple sclerosis but acknowledges that Blair has had the diagnosis since 2018 and implies that it would be unfair to question her reliability due to this fact.

The new statement provides more context than previous defenses, including details about Blair's ongoing health struggles with MS and another related condition called pseudobulbar affect.

The representatives of actress Selma Blair released an additional statement in response to her arrest on a flight from Los Angeles to New York City.

According to the new statement, Blair's actions on the plane were unintentional and she did not intend to harm anyone involved in the incident.

Blair has been living with multiple sclerosis (MS) and pseudobulbar affect, conditions that have required her to travel with a service dog for assistance.

The authorities took the dog away from her during the arrest, leaving her without support during a stressful situation.

A protective order was issued by the court for two individuals involved in Blair's treatment after her arrest - a police officer and a nurse.

Selma Blair's representatives have clarified that she did not intend to harm anyone during a recent flight that led to her arrest.

Blair's acting career began in New York in her early 20s, with notable roles in films like "Cruel Intentions" (1999), "Legally Blonde" (2001), and "Hellboy" (2004).

The representatives pointed out that the public's understanding of the recent events has been largely based on a police statement and an outdated headline from 2016, when Blair apologized for making statements she later regretted during a flight.
