Two male airport security guards fired for groping male passengers

By Josh Haggis

Two male airport security guards in the US has been fired after they hatched a plan to grope attractive male passengers.

According to a police report, the security guards at Denver International Airport would signal each other when they saw a male passenger they thought was attractive. They would then incorrectly mark the passenger as female so the scanning machine’s alarm would go off, indicating that they needed checking.

One of the security guards would then pull the passenger to the side and pat them down inappropriately in their groin area.

“[The investigator] observed [the agent] conduct a pat down of the passenger’s front groin and buttocks area with the palms of his hands, which is contradictory to TSA searching policy,” said the police report.

Both employees, who are thought to have pulled the scam over a dozen times, were fired in February after being caught in action. Despite the blatant law-breaking, the two men in question will not face prosecution.
