Getting on board a flight can be a bit hazardous, depending on that TSA agent. Turns out a former TSA agent was in court last week to answer charges that he talked a woman into showing her breasts to him as she went through security at LAX --Los Angeles International-- back in 2019. He apparently told her he needed to screen her privately, took her into an elevator to the "screening room," and while in the elevator, had her lift up her shirt so he could look inside her bra to ensure she wasn't hiding anything, and then had her hold her pants away from her waist for a check as well. He reportedly then told the woman she was free to go and said offhand that she had "nice breasts." He got 60 days in county jail, and will have to attend over 50 classes about sexual compulsion.
