The prosecutor seems pretty fucking stupid though. He makes as much sense as Eric holder.
Prosecutor Brice Robin cited a transcript of the last 30 minutes of the cockpit voice recorder, saying that "the intention was to destroy this plane".
Robin identified the pilot as Andreas Lubitz, a 28-year-old German national, but did not give any further information on his background.
During the first twenty minutes of the conversation between the pilot and the co-pilot, things were cordial. After the pilot exited the cabin — "presumably to use the toilet" — the co-pilot was breathing normally, he did not utter a single word." Then for the last ten minutes, there was "absolute silence," apart from the co-pilot's breathing within the cockpit.
"I think he refused to open the door and turned the button to get the plane down. It was a voluntary action on the part of the co-pilot," Robin said.
He said that the only way to operate the descent button on the plane was voluntarily. It cannot be operated automatically.
"He is not known as a terrorist, absolutely not," Robin added.
The prosecutor said that in the last ten minutes of the voice recorder's audio, the pilot made a number of attempts to get access to the cockpit, but was unable to. As the descent continued, the pilot started attempting to knock the reinforced door down.
The prosecutor said: "There's no question it's a voluntary action. 1) To refuse access to cockpit 2) To start the descent."
Robin said that there was no attempt to make a distress call from the plane despite "numerous attempts" to ask the plane to do so from the control tower.
He said that "nothing indicates" the crash was a terrorism, and refused to describe the co-pilots actions as suicide.
He crashed the plane on purpose but it wasn't suicide :?
