TSA looking for help in all the wrong places.

If you’re a drug dealer, sex offender, a child molester or have some other criminal record, and you’re having trouble looking for work, look no further than the TSA. They employ all sorts of people with shady backgrounds and questionable characters, to say the least.

TSA Agents Caught Smuggling Cocaine and Heroin at Atlanta Airport

And it’s all in the name of keeping us safe from terrorists. I’m sure that’s what Richard Cook and Timothy Gregory were thinking when they got involved in a drug-smuggling business at the Atlanta airport. Cook had made a deal with some drug dealers back in January that for every kilo of heroin smuggled through security, he’d get paid $2,500. In February, Cook left the TSA and handed the reins of his drug business over to co-worker Gregory, who received $1,000 per kilo of cocaine smuggled.

This isn’t the first time the TSA has assisted in the smuggling of drugs. Earlier this year in April, the Hartford Courant reported:

“Three Transportation Security Administration officers, two police officers and more than a dozen drug dealers in Florida, New York and Connecticut are charged in the smuggling conspiracy that delivered illegal Oxycodone pills from Florida to the Waterbury [Conn.] area. …Authorities said that the TSA officers — two in Florida and one in New York — were paid to help drug couriers move pills and the stacks of cash they generated through airport screening systems.”

And last year in LA, TSA screeners were found to allow luggage they knew to be filled with methamphetamines, cocaine and marijuana to pass through their “security” checkpoints in exchange for cash.

one might ask,.. who is screening the screeners... :mad: :shock: :? [/quote]
