In recent years, the TSA has fired over 400 agents for allegedly stealing from passengers in our nation’s airports.
Thanks to ABC News and a Freedom of Information Act request, the TSA is releasing the names of the airports where those employees worked. Predictably, many of our nation’s busiest airports also rank at the top of the list for the number of TSA agents fired for theft.
