Elderly woman asked to remove adult diaper during TSA search

I've done a bit of searching and can't find it. Anyone else want to try?

 

According to CNN, the mother and daughter had to go outside the checkpoint to remove the Depends and then come back through screening again.

I am going to assume that it was at this point that the daughter was screened after she broke down crying and her mother was yet again patted down in private.

Also according to this report, the TSA inspected the diaper after it had been removed!!!!!!!!

 

As of last night, Google News had over 700 articles on this story.

 

Do we have an idea as to how that number compares to those of the 6 yo girl?

 

Thanks for making post #2000.

To answer your question: "No".

 

Just doin' mah job!

Back OT: I've been trying to find the blog that exbayern referenced earlier, because it is quite enlightening as to the mind of a clerk. Ironically, every search algorithm I put into The Googles either brings up this most recent incident or the Stacy Armato incident.

 

Found it!!!!!

Mom vs. the World - Shut Up And Get In The Scanner

I don't have time right now to dig through it, so if anyone wants to track the identity of this particular piece of work, have at it...

She appears to be a real winner:

Just the right moral framework for a career with TSA, but even she couldn't hack it.

 

Yep, that's her. If you go to her Twitter page, you will see that she says she is "back in the TSA."

Do any of the other screeners on TS/S work at Nashville? I erroneously thought of Dean but he's in Huntsville in Alabama. I'd love to find out more about her - other than that she seems to be a fruitcake.

 

Oh this one sounds like a real winner. Just reading her "shut up and get in the scanner" makes me want to reach through the screen and throttle her.

 

I'm not convinced that Ciarin and the blogger are the same person. "Ciarin" posts using her real name, Anna Bucci. Nowhere that I could find on the mom blog is the person's real name mentioned.

~~

Edited to add: Anna Bucci is approximately 31; the blog mom is at least 37, perhaps older. Anna Bucci a/k/a Ciarin claims to have been in the military; blog mom doesn't say boo about that. Anna Bucci is all over the internet using her real name - somewhat of an "exhibitionist"? Bucci is into paganism and comics; blog mom doesn't seem to be into any of that stuff.

They are both scary individuals, however.

I keep spelling her "handle" wrong.....grrrrrr

 

I believe one of Cairin's posts that I found in Google indicated that she was in Richmond, VA.

Look at it this way: TS/S has the poster it deserves.

 

Yeppers!


@CiarinAnna Bucci

Took my oath, I'm back in the TSA, officially.

TS/S's new star gets around, from PaganSpace:

Looks like barbell tangled with a witch & got the short end of the stick broom.

 

You can only embed videos from three sources: YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo.

 

Forget her folks. Don't personalize this. The bile will harm you more than it will harm her.

 

Good to know I'm not completely stupid - thanks!

 

It's great entertainment, Elizabeth!
