According to the Associated Press, Brown claimed Osteen assaulted her and "tried to get into the cockpit" before being restrained. Reginald McKamie, Brown's attorney, said his client was "simply doing her job."The Associated Press: Flight attendant says Osteen's wife acted like a diva (August 7, 2008)In her testimony, Brown's co-worker Maria Johnson supported Brown's claims, but was accused of playing the "race card" by Hardin after implying Osteen "acted racist" during the altercation.Houston Chronicle: Osteen's attorney accuses witness of playing 'race card' (August 7, 2008)
