TSA ... once again demonstrating how they get the job done ... X-posted from the red board.
"according to the convicted officer, the problem was even more widespread than ever feared and is still going on today."
"...it had been 'very convenient to steal' he said. 'It became so easy, I got complacent.
'It was like being on drugs, it was. I was like, "What am I doing?' but the next day I was right back at it".'"
Shocking though his actions were, Brown was not alone.

A convicted TSA security officer says he was part of a "culture" of indifference that allowed corrupt employees to prey on passengers' luggage and personal belongings with impunity, thanks to lax oversight and tip-offs from TSA colleagues.
"It was very commonplace, very," said Pythias Brown, a former TSA officer at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey who admits he stole more than $800,000 worth of items from luggage and security checkpoints over a four-year period.
"It was very convenient to steal," he said.
