MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – Miami-Dade police arrested three Transportation Security Administration officers Thursday after accusing them of conspiring to steal passengers’ money as they went through screening at Miami International Airport.

According to an arrest report, MIA’s federal security director contacted Miami-Dade Police Department detectives Thursday about recent ongoing thefts at a security checkpoint in Concourse E.

Now you know why they are forcing grandma out of her wheel chair for a pat down.

I wish editors would get their acts together.

MIA flyers are Missing In Action handbills.

It’s also the international code for Miami airport.

It’s always hard for me to understand how you can have the best paying unskilled job in the nation and you still proceed to by a yutz.

Labarrius Williams, 33, and Josue Gonzalez, 20, and Elizabeth Fuster

One of my former co-workers worked at a police station and his job was handing out keys to the cop cars He decided to try selling an empty gift card, $150, to an officer on the police market place website.

He’s now driving for Meals on Wheels.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Yep. Good money. Benefits out the yazoo. Free health insurance, sick leave, regular raises,
vacations and holidays. You always work on GPT — Government People Time; you don't
break a sweat.

They have been replaced and the stealing continues without missing a beat. It is the American way.

[Secret Agent Man]

If anyone thinks this is a rarity....

[Jonty30]

2 1/2 times pay for working overtime and holidays as well.

[cherry]

the rest of the story...

[sport]

2and 1/2 times pay plus all you can steal is not bad.

I assume the names are in order from right to left?

The Tres Amigos?

Is the one on the right Elizabeth? Trans or whatever.

Still more ☭#Dem_Insanity!

[Texas Fossil]

“right to left”?

I meant: “left to right”.

I’m not very awake at this hour.

I looked at the sequence and the ages, it does not look like there is any order on the names.

[JustaTech]

No functional difference from civil asset forfeiture on the side of the road, except for notification. Either way the money is gone forever. Might as well give ‘em a promotion and a box of donuts each.

[Flaming Conservative]

And they look like such upstanding citizens!

[minnesota_bound]

I was at a gas station. I went inside and bought $5 worth of stuff and gave the guy a $20. He gave me a $5. I reminded him I gave him a $20 and I got the other $10....

Gotta watch people with your money and stuff all the time.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

The names and the pictures are in the same sequence as published. I think we can figure out what picture matches the girl's name,
and it's obvious which picture goes with "Labarrius", and the picture on the far right looks like a Gonzalez.

[Texas Fossil]

No big issue, impressed by none of them. But that should not surprise anyone.

The whole TSA thing, soured me on air travel. I’ve almost totally quit flying anywhere, not out of fear, but out of disgust with the whole TSA nonsense.

I hate bureaucraps.

[joma89]

Surprise! Obama children again.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

I worked with a flight attendant whose husband worked as a ramp worker in airline baggage.

She always had the most beautiful jewelry... never did figure out how they afforded thousands of dollars of gold and diamonds on a baggage handler’s salary...

NEVER pack your valuables or medication in checked luggage.
