A JetBlue pilot who was arrested last month at Boston’s Logan Airport moments before takeoff shot himself in a train station parking lot on Friday morning. 

Jeremy Gudorf, 33, killed himself in his car at the Wonderland MBTA Station in Revere, which is five miles from downtown Boston, as he was approached by troopers with the Massachusetts State Police fugitive team. 

Reports say that Gudorf was alive when troopers found him in the parking lot, before he pulled out a gun and ‘abruptly shot himself.’ 

Police entered the vehicle and provided first aid, but he was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital. 

Gudorf had been tracked down to the parking lot weeks after he was arrested at Boston Logan Airport on February 20 on an outstanding warrant from North Carolina, where he was accused of exploitation of a minor. 

He was due to turn himself over to police in North Carolina to face those charges, but failed to make the trip. The troopers who witnessed his suicide were on their way to collect him and hand him over to North Carolina authorities.

Gudorf’s shock arrest last month came as US Customs and Border Protection conducted a review of the manifest of his flight from Boston to Paris and found he had outstanding warrants, and he was hauled off the plane moments before takeoff. 

JetBlue previously told DailyMail.com that Gudorf had been placed on indefinite leave, and said it was ‘closely reviewing’ the case.

The warrant for the pilot’s arrest was discovered during a routine check of the plane’s occupants 

The Huntersville Police Department in North Carolina said it launched an investigation into Gudorf in October 2024 following a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. 

Investigators obtained a search warrant for Google during the investigation, allegedly leading them to find sexual exploitation images linked to Gudorf. 

‘At the time the crime was committed, records indicate he resided in Huntersville, NC. However, during the investigation, and before he was identified as a suspect, he relocated out of state,’ the department said in a statement. 

Gudorf also resided in Xenia, Ohio, about an hour northeast of Cincinnati, and prosecutors had requested that he be held without bail following his arrest at Logan Airport. 

However, a judge instead set his bail was set at $10,000 and allowed him to keep his passport, under the condition he reported to North Carolina within a week. 

Tanvi Verma, Gudorf’s defense attorney, insisted after his arrest in Boston that he would be appearing in North Carolina, but the pilot never did so

Gudorf’s defense attorney Tanvi Verma said at the time that the pilot had ‘the financial capacity to rent a car and drive to North Carolina’ and ‘has assured me he will do that.’

‘Frankly, there is no running away from this case, judge. He’s perfectly aware of that,’ Verma said at the time. ‘These are serious charges. The news is here. He’s not going to be able to just run away from this.’ 

Verma added that her client had no prior criminal history, and the judge allowed Gudorf to be freed against the prosecutors’ wishes.  

When he never showed up for the court date in North Carolina, cops located him in the parking lot on Friday, shortly before he killed himself.
