News reported that he wasn't a terrorist and he was let go.

WTH? Why isn't he in jail? Why isn't he blacklisted from every American airline? Why isn't the airline suing him to recoup the costs. Why is no one responsible for their actions anymore?

I applaud the pax for taking prompt action, but obviously the people who pull these stunts are mentally ill. I feel bad for them, and it's a tragedy when they die.

He was obviously mentally ill. Maybe TSA confiscated his meds?

"When he was asked what was in the bag, Sandou said the man said, "You'll see."

For that, "I twisted his arms a little more tight," Sandou said."

Let's just call it a little "mono y mono justice"

Mr. Sandou is the man I would want sitting in Biz First if this happened on my flight.

The crew should have dropped down to 1000 AGL or so, depressurized, and helped him on his way. The world would be a better place.
