A California pilot could face jail time after deliberately crashing his airplane to gain more views for his YouTube channel, federal authorities said Thursday.
Trevor Jacob, a 29-year-old professional snowboarder-turned-pilot, has agreed to plead guilty to one count of destruction and concealment with the intent to obstruct a federal investigation, a crime punishable by up to 20 years in federal prison, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for Central California.
