Associated Press, February 24.
NEWARK, N.J. – A lead transportation security officer at Newark Liberty
Airport in New Jersey has admitted that he and his supervisor regularly
stole money from travelers' bags during security screenings.
Transportation Security Administration officer Al Raimi of Woodbridge
pleaded guilty Thursday in Newark federal court to theft by a government
officer.
Federal prosecutors say the 29-year-old Raimi stole between $10,000 and $30,
000 cash over nearly a year from travelers passing through his checkpoint.
He gave a cut of the cash to his supervisor, Michael Arato, who pleaded
guilty to related charges this month.
Raimi could face up to 10 years in prison at his June 6 sentencing.
Separately, two TSA agents at a New York City airport were arrested this
month on charges of stealing $40,000 from passengers' luggage. |
