Man was in first class seating aboard a jetliner, watching child pornography, while in flight to Boston and flying over several states. Several passengers complained to flight personnel and man was arrested as he deboarded the plane in Massachuttes. Question: since this violation of the law occured over several states, would each state have the authority to prosecute this subject for possession of child pornography? Or, would prosecution be limited to just the State of Massachuttes?
