Ohio Woman Outraged by TSA Pat-Down: ‘She Sexually Assaulted Me’

An Ohio woman traveling with her infant son says a now-routine pat-down by a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screener went too far.

“She sexually assaulted me,” Erin Chase complained Wednesday of the intrusive search. “She needs to lose her job,” she said of the TSA employee.

Chase‘s complaint is just one of thousands pouring in from frustrated air passengers over the TSA’s recently implemented more stringent security checks. The pat-down she says she experienced at Ohio’s Dayton International Airport is part a lengthy hands-on search, But she says it felt like much more.

The TSA’s new “palms down” technique is leaving many passengers like Chase feeling very violated, comparing the security screening to being sexually “groped.”

“She went all the way up my legs, up my inner thighs, felt all along my inner thighs until she reached my genital area, touching both sides,” Chase told .

TSA officials have released a statement about Chase’s claims, saying “TSA personnel have been in contact with the passenger, are reviewing the alleged incident and will take appropriate action if necessary.”

While Chase’s complaint was relatively mild, other air passengers are not taking the new invasive procedures sitting down. In one reported incident, a TSA screener in Indianapolis was assaulted by one passenger Wednesday afternoon, punched in the chest after escorting the suspect through one of the new, controversial full-body “scatterback” scanners.

In a statement, TSA spokesman Greg Soule called violence against TSOs, “shameful.”

“Our transportation security officers work on the front lines to protect the nation from a terrorist attack and physical violence against them is shameful. TSA will work with local authorities to see that appropriate action is taken,” Soule said.

    Why do I seem to remember reading something a while back about Obama wanting to create some sort of train/rail system like they have in Europe?! Maybe I’m remembering wrong, but if I’m right, maybe it’s all part of the plan. Tick people off enough, they’ll stop flying, excuse to spend billions on something like that since no one would ever go for it otherwise. Or, maybe I’m nuts and looking into it too deep.

      Soon it will be a full body search to ride a train, then an interstate bus. After that, a full body search will be required to visit the White House, the halls of Congress, the Smithsonian or any government facility. Sooner or later it will apply to local city busses and subways.

      You see, whenever the government begins a program, it can only expand. Dictatorship is just a few programs away.

This is outrageous and where did the metal detectors and SNIFFING dogs go? How about they focus a bit more on PROFILING? 9.11 would still have happened, even if they had this in place. They didn’t even need box cutters.. they could have used razor blades in shaving kits. The TSA is behind the curve. Their focus now should be on CARGO that is carried on all airlines in the USA.

    So, the govt’s answer is to assault, intimidate, ridicule and demean the 80% plus of the population that flies and has NO involvement in terrorist attackes. We let the remaining 20% or so dictate the ‘rules of engagement’. Well, sonny, that ain’t gonna happen any more. It is time that we put both the gov’t and those that have put our lives at risk (terrorists) in their place.

    It is time to be creative though respectfull, while being forceful at the same time. Here is a suggestion – if you are in a TSA line, turn on your camera phone and record the agents in action. Last time I looked, there is no law or protocal against doing that. And if your travel partner is to be searched in another room, insist that you are present. If TSA says you can’t attend, drop your pants and bend over – tell them to kiss it, not inspect it…..

    Lawsuits need to start flying, start challenging this in court, frankly I am surprised some haven’t been announced. The only thing I can see causing an issue is the search is not mandatory, technically you do not have to fly.

    The alternative is to tell all the airlines we are no longer flying until the molestation of their passengers ends. If enough people follow along with that and cause enough loss of profit it will change in a heart beat.

How many times have you gone thru security & the agent never looks you in the eye, just marks your boarding pass & says “Next”…it happens in Atlanta all the time. Let’s do what El Al does–hire Veterans who have training in psy-ops, and can look at the passenger, ask him a few questions about their trip, watch their reaction & make a trained decision about who gets on the plane…by applying some common sense & military training, the TSA can keep people safe and stop terrorism without breaking or bending our 4th Amendment right.

      Not sure who has had the chance to watch Beck’s program today (Nov 17th), but he had a great idea. Using trained ex-military personnel to do screening, just like El Al Airlines does it (Israeli). Used trained professionals to interact and interview passengers.

      I’m not sure of what thier entire program looks like, but I would be receptive to this, coupled with your basic metal detectors and other non-intrusive scanning methods. The last step before boarding the plane would be dogs. Have people file into one last room, maybe 50 or so people, and have the dogs take one last sniff around to see what they can find. When the group is cleared, they all go on their way. Perhaps a little bit longer of a wait than we see now at checkpoints, but that is fine with me. If the system were based on common sense and run by professionals, I would happily get to the airport 30 minutes earlier.

      @ Rogue- I think that is a great idea. Dogs should be searching every individual as they walk past security. Also, having professionals / ex military performing the searches would greatly increase the effectiveness of every search. If you are suspected of being a danger, you then move to a more thorough search.

I was in charge of the Pass & ID office and Military Working Dogs for three different bases and was responsible for protecting American military from terrorists over an area of 600 square miles. We screened contractors, visitors, and dignitaries without a single incident. Never did we need naked body scanners or have to pat down people. This was what I did before and after the September 11th attacks.

      Their security procedures are nonsensical. More people drown in bathtubs than die from terrorist attacks.

I read about a version of the virus attack that knocked out the Iranian Nuc Plant, called Stutnex, and how it can be a major threat to the industriel computer systems and such about the planet.

      Here is a part of the article I find interesting

      They warned that industries are becoming increasingly vulnerable to the so-called Stuxnet worm as they merge networks and computer systems to increase efficiency. The growing danger, said lawmakers, makes it imperative that Congress move on legislation that would expand government controls and set requirements to make systems safer.

      I believe people have the right to defend themselves. If these NAZIs try to grope you then you have the right and duty to bust them one right in the nose. I am afraid I don’t agree with Glenn Beck on this. These TSA people are not the good guys. They are nothing more than hired thugs by a government that is itself a criminal syndicate. “I was only following (unlawful) orders is a valid excuse.

      “I was only following (unlawful) orders is a valid excuse.
      That should read:
      “I was only following (unlawful) orders is NOT a valid excuse. It is simple matter of knowing right from wrong. I you too stupid to the know law then you don’t belong in law enforcement.

      This is not too difficult to understand.

      Amendment IV

      The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

      And fall you brain dead cowards that OK with the TSA sexually molesting our citizens.

      Oh, and by the way. I don’t care about your safety. I willing to sacrifice your safety to defend my liberty.

      Conservative Grinch – “I was only following orders.” Wasn’t that the blanket excuse at Neuremburg?

      These TSA thugs are hired off the street and I would bet there was only a perfunctory background check if any. We have no idea how many of them are actually convicted sex offenders and pedophiles.

      If Congress wants to fly, they can ALL go commercial. Another thing….Airforce one and two belong to US, not to Obama and Biden. I say let e’m walk. We don’t fly…..no one flys. On second thought, I believe if we don’t fly for a week, maybe less…….that is all it would take for the airlines to bring their considerable clout to bare. I have to go back east next spring, and I am looking into taking the train.

      There is a greater goal here that security, i.e., the powers that be don’t want us little people jet-setting around the country willy-nilly, so they are trying to humiliate us into staying home, and it’s working. My choices are let them take naked pictures of my wife or let them fondle her? We won’t be flying anymore unless they back off.

      I hate to say this, but being a TSO would be the ideal job for a homosexual right now. They would get to grope people for free! Can you see them fighting over the good looking ones? My uncle was a doctor, and they fought over the good-looking corpses to learn on. You know this happens.

      I would think it would be rather obvious by now, that the real terrorists are the ones, implementing these assaults! Also, pushing the muslim hatred and resentment, by giving them special treatment, makes no sense. This concept is so contradictory, that I can’t believe they are doing this! To claim muslims are responsible for 9/11; and give them no screening? If they aren’t considered a threat to the TSA, why should we consider them a threat?
      The real “beast” is within our own compound. They are literally throwing America off balance, creating unfounded anger and division; therefore, making it impossible to trace their tracks!

      Don’t you people get it? DON’T FLY!

      Boycott the airlines, just a couple of weeks of planes sitting on the tarmac will end the illegal strip searches!

      If you subject yourself to be fondled and or stripped searched by flying then don’t biotch about it!

      Napolitano, TSA and Congress will not stop this injustice until people stop paying for it!!

      101, that may be the ultimate thing a few of the politicians are hoping for. If people stop flying, this small group can push their “fast train’ agenda.
