Idaho TSA Director Resigns Following Indecent Exposure Charge

Police Say Man Stripped Naked At Hotel
Officially, Douglas Craig Melvin resigned his post at the Federal Security Director for the Transportation Security Administration in Boise, ID for "personal reasons"... but his decision likely had something to do with an incident early last week at an Idaho Falls hotel.

Boise television station KTVB-7 reports Melvin, 48, was arrested after he allegedly entered the swimming area at a Fairfield Inn on the night of February 19, removed his clothes and proceeded to walk naked around the pool -- in full view of hotel employees and guests.

According to police reports, Melvin performed other indecent acts, as well -- including those the police say indicated a motive to "satisfy personal need or desire." And... we'll leave it at that.

Police add alcohol was a factor in the incident. Melvin resigned from TSA Wednesday, and his access to secure areas at Boise International Airport has been revoked.

We imagine he's no longer welcome at the hotel, either...

I guess the hotel guests saw his full monty. Now there's a qualification for TSA Director!

I'm very responsible when I drink alone. It's when I'm with an unruly mob of fellow drunks that I get into trouble.

Some of my alcohols sayings:

To alcohol! The cause of - and solution to - all of life's problems.

24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not.

To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a Support Group. Salvation in a can!

I'll bet that he was making serious money with the TSA at a job that was *very* secure and required no heavy lifting.

Why in God's name couldn't he have looked in the Yellow Pages under "Escorts" and given them his room number?

"Alcohol"- Brad Paisley

I can make anybody pretty
I can make you believe any lie
I can make you pick a fight
With somebody twice your size

I been known to cause a few break ups
I been known to cause a few births
I can make you new friends
Or get you fired from Work

[1st Chorus]
And since the day I left Milwaukee
Lynchburg and Bordeaux France
Been making the bars lots of big money
And helping white people dance
I got you in trouble in high school
But college, now that was a ball
You had some of the best times
You'll never remember with me
Alcohol
Alcohol

I got blamed at your wedding reception
For your best man's embarrassing speech
And also for those
Naked pictures of you at the beach

I've influenced kings and world leaders
I helped Hemmingway write like he did
And I'll bet you a drink or two that I can make you
Put that lampshade on your head

[2nd Chorus]
'Cause since the day I left Milwaukee
Lynchburg and Bordeaux France
Been making a fool out of folks just like you
And helping white people dance
I'm medicine and I am poison
I can help you up or make you fall
You had some of the best times
You'll never remember with me
Alcohol
Alcohol

[Repeat 1st Chorus]

Indecent Exposure

I don't get it - what is the motivation?

(streakers too...)

I guess I'll answer my own question - maybe it's like that old song "...He like s to show off his physique..."

Then again; most people who like to run around naked - shouldn't! :-P
