Another TSA Agent Accepts Bribes from Drug Trafficker

Los Angles Transportation Security Administration agent, Dianna Perez has been charged with accepting bribes from a drug trafficker, Millage Peaks, Jr. Millage Peaks, Jr. allegedly paid $500 to Dianna Perez for each suitcase of illegal drugs she helped clear through TSA security.

Millage Peaks, Jr. was caught, headed from Los Angeles to Boston when baggage handlers noticed his suitcase smelled of marijuana. This was probably the tenth time Dianna Perez had helped Millage Peaks, Jr. get a suitcase through TSA security.

On the surface this may seem just like a harmless case of drug trafficking, but this is far more serious. What if there had been a bomb hidden in anyone of those ten suitcases and Dianna Perez had sneaked it through security thinking it was just full of drugs? Anyone should be able to see the potential danger. These corrupt TSA agents are a serious threat to the security of air traffic. What sort of degenerates is the TSA hiring anyway?

TSA Officers Took Bribes from Drug Trafficker

The fine men and women of the Transportation Security Administration should be protecting air travelers, but they are too busy committing all sorts illegal acts. The latest exposure of criminal activity at the TSA centers around a drug smuggling.

A drug trafficker was routinely transporting large amounts of black-market oxycodone and cash back and forth between Florida and the northeastern United States. To make sure things went smoothly, the trafficker bribed TSA officers Christopher Allen of Palm Beach Gardens, FL; John Best of Port St. Lucie, FL; and Brigitte Jones of The Bronx, NY to let him through security with drugs and large amounts of cash. The trafficker also had, Florida State Trooper, Justin Kolves and NYPD officer, Michael Brady, on the payroll. So far, at least twenty people have been arrested for involvement with the drug ring as part of the Drug Enforcement Administration's “Operation Blue Coast.”

If TSA agents will take bribes to let drugs through security, what else will they let through if properly bribed? For those who argue TSA agents might accept bribes to let drugs through but they would never take bribes to allow explosives through, consider this. What if a terrorist posed as a drug trafficker, gave bribes to TSA workers to let a suitcase full of drugs on a plane, and it turned out he had hidden a bomb in that suitcase?
