Hello, I'm Kristi Johnson, the assistant director in charge of the FBI's Los Angeles Field Office. April is National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. While sex assault can happen anywhere, many people don't realize that they can and do occur on airplanes. Most passengers travel by air without incident, but if you or a loved one encounter sexual misconduct, whether physical or verbal, please alert your flight attendant immediately. The FBI investigates crimes aboard aircraft, including sexual assaults.

Timely notification is key. In Los Angeles, you can reach out to the FBI 24 hours a day at 310-477-6565. Visit fbi.gov to submit a tip online or to reach another field office. Thank you.
