A Utah airline pilot is facing federal charges after being accused of groping a 14-year-old girl while he was a passenger on a flight from Detroit to Salt Lake City. Michael James Pascal, 45, of Park City, is charged with abusive sexual contact. The girl told investigators that she woke up from a nap on an Oct. 26 Delta Airlines flight and found Pascal's hand under her, gripping her buttocks.
Pascal told investigators he fell asleep with his hands in his lap and doesn't know how one ended up underneath the girl. The girl told authorities she elbowed Pascal after waking up with his hand underneath her and said, "What the hell are you doing?" documents show. She says Pascal pulled his hand out from under her and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was asleep, I have to use the bathroom. The girl, who was flying alone, told flight attendants what happened and changed seats.
