ne of Chris Christie’s relatives has been hit with a felony charge a year after being accused of a violent, drunken meltdown on an airplane last Thanksgiving.
Shannon Epstein — a niece of the former Governor turned two-time presidential hopeful — was restrained and arrested in Louisiana after attacking sheriff’s officers aboard the Spirit airline flight bound for New Jersey.
Epstein was charged on Monday with resisting police by force or violence and two misdemeanor counts of disturbing the peace by public intoxication, according to NOLA.com.
Police in Jefferson Parish County previously said that Epstein appeared to be under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, as she slurred her words.
