I do not believe this story.
When you put a purse through the x-ray scanner and it is flagged for secondary screening, they pull it, find the owner after they go through the metal detector/body scanner, and bring it to a table and screen it while you watch.
I have a very hard time believing a TSA agent pulled it from the x-ray machine, walked 15 feet away and "rummeged thru it", stole the cash, and then handed it back.
You realize that like, there are cameras recording everything in the screening area, right? Why didn't you report this obvious crime to one of the many police officers in the airport?
I think the TSA is a joke, but naah. I suppose this could have happened in some third world country or something, I guess.
