A dying woman says a security pat-down at Sea-Tac Airport left her embarrassed in front of crowds of people.
Michelle Dunaj says screeners checked under bandages from recent surgeries and refused to give her a private search when she requested one.
Dunaj, who is dying of leukemia, carried a large amount of prescription drugs through Sea-Tac to head to Hawaii for what would be one of the last trips of her life.
She called Alaska Airlines ahead of time to request a wheelchair and to ask how her medicines should be separated for the security line.
“I did everything they asked me to do, so I didn’t think it would be an issue,” she said.
But Dunaj says nothing went right at the security checkpoint.
A machine couldn’t get a reading on her saline bags, so a TSA agent forced one open, contaminating the fluid she needs to survive.
If this doesn’t boil your blood, then you are not human — you and I cannot be friends. I don’t care what spectrum of politics you occupy this is just flat out, crazy making wrong.
I really only have one questions here, why do we allow the TSA to continue to exist?
