A year ago, 58-year-old Nadine Hays was going through security at Bob Hope Airport in Burbank, Calif., with her mother, who was 93 years old. Headed to a wedding, Hays wouldn't surrender her blue cooler filled with snacks for her elderly mother, and ended up in jail, reports CBS station KCBS-TV in Los Angeles.

"I had things like applesauce, cottage cheese... I apparently reached over and grabbed the ice chest with my second hand and that's where the prosecution is saying I supposedly hit the supervisor," Hays told KCBS.
