Orlando International Airport TSA Agent Caught Stealing Cash From Woman’s Luggage
As if airport security wasn’t stressful enough, an airline passenger in Florida has had to confront a TSA officer who tried to steal money from her luggage. (nypost.com) 更多...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Why does the TSA exist again? I'm pretty sure we had airport security before 9/11. Then they made up this redundant federal agency which employs less qualified and lower paid people to do a job that has supposedly become more serious. Brilliant.
The TSA is so remarkably bad at its job that it would be a waste of time to try and recall every egregious security breach or instance of theft or groping.
Yes, this particular TSA employee did a very bad thing. Add it to the list, and have a nice flight.

My wife has 2 artificial hips and after going through the x-ray device, she still has to be "wanded" and patted down. I always proceed her so that I can reclaim our scanned items including her purse, while she waits for a female TSA agent. Now, I am also patted down EVERY time we fly. We are both detained before either can claim our scanned items sitting at the end of the conveyor. We are both 80 and statistics show that the elderly are considered easy targets for theft, so we have to be extra diligent. We will only fly if it is an emergency.
My wife has two knee replacements AND is a federal officer and goes through the same thing. I get it now too, ever since we got married, and like you, the only way anyone is getting us to fly commercial again is if it's a dire emergency. Between the TSA and the way passengers are treated by the airlines these days, it's just not worth it. We'd rather drive and get there in a few days, or take the train.
That must be breaking a Federal law. Jail time would send the correct message to TSA employees...
My wife once had a can of Diet Coke in her luggage and when she arrived in Orlando either an airline employee or TSA had deliberately and obviously run a screwdriver through the can while it was still in the bag. Minor inconvenience but still a violation of trust.
What did the DHS expect? DHS gave these people an incredible amount of power and a wide latitude of discretion. And as anyone knows, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
BTW, it appears that DHS is using affirmative action quotas in their hiring.
