A 27-year-old woman is facing three years probation for drunkenly groping a fellow female passenger on board an Alaskan Airlines flight.

Heidi McKinney is due to be sentenced in Portland, Oregon, on Monday for the incident which took place in May last year.

Prosecutors have asked that she be sentenced to three years probation for assault with intent to commit a felony, a charge she pleaded guilty to in March which carries a maximum penalty of 10 years behind bars and a $250,000 fine.  More
