TSA screener ripped off hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of electronics from passengers, TSA didn't notice

MadScott sez, "TSA Screener Pythias Brown walked off with hundreds of thousands of dollars of passengers' belongings without ever being observed by the TSA, selling the items on Ebay (apparently he was good about customer service).

His greed eventually came back to haunt him, when CNN found one of their cameras listed on Ebay. With a little help from the local police department and the USPS, Brown was apprehended.


Yet more reasons why I always put valuables in my carry-on. Goons like this are what gives TSA a bad name. Not that they had a good name in the first place...
