Consider this a lesson in drunk dialing.
A Hawaii man was sentenced to 18 months in prison Thursday for drunkenly calling the FBI and falsely reporting an airplane hijacking, the Associated Press reports.
Timothy David Hershman blamed the incident on alcoholism and anger.
“I screwed up really big time, your honor,” he said. “I’m really sorry for this.”
Hershman’s attorney added: “He’s an alcoholic and he gets stupid when gets drunk.”
