TSA Security staff employed at Newark and JFK airports were arrested this week for stealing cash from the bags of passengers while they were going through security. One supervisor had his subordinate steal then give him a kick-back.

Try to keep an eye on your bags.

With two or three TSA agents at each screening line as standard practice one has to wonder how deep this goes since the other agents turn a blind eye to the obvious. One also has to wonder about the checked bags that are opened by TSA agents out of site of passengers for inspection prior to being sent on their way to the aircraft. And then there are opportunist baggage handlers who have access with a TSA key (easy pickings) to unlock and steal whatever they want. It's a crazy world we live in and nobody can be trusted whether they are in a position of authority or just some low life criminal.
