New surveillance footage appears to show Transportation Security Administration officers at Miami International Aiport going through travelers’ bags and allegedly stealing money during security screenings.
Two TSA agents are facing charges in the alleged thefts following their arrests in July.
Josue Gonzalez and Labarrius Williams are facing grand theft charges. A third TSA agent was initially arrested but had her charges dropped.
According to arrest reports, authorities started investigating thefts that had occurred at the airport’s Security Checkpoint E.
Gonzalez was accepted into a state program where if he successfully completes it, his charges will get dropped.
For the next six months, Gonzalez must pay $700 to the two victims involved and he must do 25 hours of community service and give up his airport security credentials.
As for Williams, he was denied entry into the same program so he will head to trial.
