MIAMI – Three TSA officers at Miami International Airport are accused of stealing from airline passengers, including hundreds of dollars from one victim’s wallet, and were arrested last week, according to reports.
Arrest affidavits show that 22-year-old Elizabeth Fuster, 33-year-old Labarrius Williams and 20-year-old Josue Gonzalez were all arrested Thursday on charges of organized schemes to defraud, the Miami Herald reported.
The federal security director for law enforcement at the airport notified a Miami-Dade Police detective regarding thefts that occurred at Checkpoint E involving TSA officers, according to the arrest affidavit.
Fuck the TSA
This is why my phone, wallet, and watch get buried DEEP in my bag inside my packed shoes when I go through security.
This is why I don’t ever bring anything valuable on a plane if I can help it.
Wallet, phone, watch, belt all go off and deep into a bag before getting to the screening. Less to put in and remove (or forget) from the bin - added bonus of keeping thieving TSA hands off your goods.
Baggage handlers rubbing their hands waiting for your bags
These are the people “protecting” us from terrorists.
