According to Wiki she said “I don’t like Mondays. This livens up the day”.
Where now?
She remains imprisoned at the California Institution for Women in Chino. Her next opportunity for a parole hearing will be in 2025.

I know that with Russia airspace not available, a lot of Europe airlines have cut back on flights to Asia because of the added costs because they have to fly longer. Probably effects the Anchorage airport also.
