Roles reversed

Filed under: privacy & security by Victoria Liberty @ 5:27 pm

A 61-year-old Colorado woman was arrested and charged with felony sexual abuse for doing to a TSA agent, well, what TSA agents do to travelers every day:

“Officials said Yukari Mihamae was flying from Phoenix’s Sky Harbor Airport to Colorado when she put her hands on a TSA agent Barbara O’Toole’s breast and squeezed and twisted with both hands.

She was immediately taken into custody, Fox31 Denver reported – and ‘pulled away from the arresting officer when placed under arrest.’”

Why aren’t there any arrests when the roles are reversed?

Read the rest at the New York Daily News.

ETA: The New York Post says that, unsurprisingly, Mihamae expressed dislike of the TSA’s security measures. ”I go through this every week, and every week there is some problem,” she said. A brave freedom fighter, in a weird way??

And you can read more details of her arrest from ABC.
