From CNET – Are you the type of airline passenger who, when your hand luggage goes through security, tries to peer all the way into the machine, just to check that nothing will be tampered with?
You may have good reason to do so, if a story from Florida holds up in court. In one incident, Broward County Sheriff’s Office says that Nelson Santiago, 30, allegedly removed an iPad from a passenger’s suitcase and then, well, stuffed it down his pants.
This was allegedly witnessed by a Continental Airlines employee at Florida’s Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood airport. In total, Santiago is alleged to have stolen around $50,000 worth of passengers’ possessions over a six-month period, mainly gadgets of one kind or another. In one case, he is alleged to have stolen a GPS.
He has been charged with grand theft and apparently no longer works for the TSA.
This story has a hole in it.
The story insinuates that this happened with carry-on luggage at the screening machine.
Wouldn’t the passenger scream bloody murder is their iPad went in the xray machine and didn’t come out the other end?
