Lisa Nowak Has a New Job
Thursday March 22, 2007
Navy Captain Lisa Nowak, who was recently terminated from her astronaut assignment by NASA after she was charged with trying to kidnap a romantic rival, has a new job. The Navy says she will develop flight lesson plans as part of her new assignment developing curriculum and training programs working for the staff of the Chief of Naval Air Training Command in Corpus Christi. Although Lisa Nowak was originally expected to start her new assignment this week, the Navy now says she will be reporting for duty in April.
Lisa Nowak was arrested February 5, 2007 and charged with attempted kidnapping and burglary with assault. She allegedly confronted a rival for the heart of fellow astronaut Bill Oefelein. Police say she stalked Air Force Captain Colleen Shipman in a parking lot at the airport in Orlando, FL and had in her possession a BB gun, steel mallet, knife and rubber tubing.
Lisa Nowak could go to trial in late July. The separated mother of three has filed a not guilty plea.

C’mon, Nick, don’t you know that the press is not allowed to write about Lisa Nowack unless they explicitly mention the diapers?
At least, that seems to the case…
Heh, heh, heh… It seems our nation is fascinated by toilet humor. Just look at what passes for comedy in too many modern movies.
As a journalist, I would be remiss to not cover the Lisa Nowak story, but I hope to not sensationalize it too much.
This idiot is stil IN THE NAVY? She must have pics of the CNO tied up spread-eagled somewhere.
Give us a break AND psych bust her out of the NAvy already, shes a disgrace. (good thing she didn’t say anything bad on the radio, then she would really be in it…/country’s gone to hell already….)
She’s innocent until proved guilty.
She should be in Jail.
