TSA agents don’t get enough credit. They aren’t just experts at sexually molesting airport passengers, although they are very good at that. They have also become well known for outright theft.

Here’s the latest from the New York Post:

A TSA agent at JFK Airport was busted when he was caught stealing money out of a passenger’s wallet at a security checkpoint, authorities said.

Joe Bangay, 37, was processing passengers at Terminal 1 around 10:30 p.m. Saturday when he swiped $61 in cash out of the passenger’s wallet, according to police.

PAPD officers reviewed security footage and watched as the victim placed the wallet in a basket and laid it on the conveyor belt of the X-ray machine.

The cops then witnessed Bangay allegedly pick up the wallet and pocket the money.

The theft comes on the heels of several other crimes involving TSA agents.

Agent Margo Lauree-Grant was arrested earlier this month for allegedly stealing a Canadian passenger’s diamond-encrusted watch at JFK.

Don’t worry, they’re just keeping us safe.

  1. A few years ago when all of this TSA BS got started, my sister called me and asked if I would pick her up at the airport. On arriving there I saw her sitting outside on a bench talking with some young TSA person. I sat there for awhile across from them and noticed that this TSA person was actually pestering my sister and trying to get an answer from her as to why she was sitting on concrete bench that was put there for travellers who wanted to relax their legs and butts while waiting for a ride.
    I stepped out of my car and called to my sister and said “hey, lets go sis.”
    To which the 19 year old “agent” told me he was “not finished” interrogating her. I then got angry, got out of my car and told him in no uncertain terms that he “WAS finished and that people sit on benches for a variety of reasons, most naturally because their legs hurt due to standing for long periods in airports while being molested by jerks like you! Why don’t you go back to Kmart and get your old job back!”
    To which he stood there with a deer in the headlights look, his bottom lip trembling while I opened the door for my sister as she got into the car and I smiled got in slammed the door and said “Fornication Under Control of the King OFF” as I drove away.
