A non-binary former Biden administration official avoided jail time in Virginia last week, after striking a plea deal that included community service and mental health treatment, after he stole a woman's luggage from the Reagan International Airport in 2018.
Sam Brinton, who has faced multiple felony larceny charges for stealing luggage in Minnesota, Nevada, and Washington, D.C., pleaded guilty to petit larceny in exchange for a lighter sentence that includes 50 hours of community service, entrance into an adult diversion program, and a letter of apology to victim Asya Khamsin, who is a Tanzanian fashion designer.
