Porn Star Tory Lane Allegedly Drunkenly Attacked Passengers On Flight To LAX

Porn star Tory Lane was arrested at LAX after allegedly getting drunk and assaulting other passengers and the flight crew.Delta flight 17 from Atlanta Georgia landed at LAX on Wednesday night, and airport police and members of the FBI were there to meet Lane, real name Lisa Piasecki, at gate, uh, 69 (no joke). Lane was detained and later taken to a hospital for treatment. According to KTLA, police described her behavior as "belligerent" and said the incident happened in mid-air.
TMZ reports that Lane was so unruly that she had to be restrained during the last 45 minutes of the flight, and when the flight landed she attacked one of the officers there to take her into custody.
Lane has since been released from jail and tweeted early this morning from her personal Twitter account @misstorylane (link NSFW) saying there's more to the story than has been reported (tweets include NSFW images, and have been embedded to not display them):
According to the Internet Adult Film Database, Lane has directed 7 movies and appeared in over 600 films—including When Pornstars Attack and When Pornstars Attack 4.
