Serial stowaway appears in court in Chicago after arrest

CHICAGO (AP) — A judge has denied a request to consider releasing a woman with a history of sneaking aboard airplanes to a Chicago nursing home following her latest arrest.

The Chicago Tribune reports 64-year-old Marilyn Hartman appeared in court Tuesday in Chicago. Police say she was arrested Feb. 17 at a bus shuttle center at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. The judge called for a probation supervisor and a nursing home representative to attend court next week to figure out the next step.

Hartman has tried numerous times in recent years to board planes without a ticket, succeeding at least once. She was arrested twice in two days last summer at O’Hare and Chicago’s Midway International Airport.

Hartman was released on probation to the nursing home in December, and ordered to avoid airports and Chicago’s Union Station.
