Miss USA speaks about her ordeal at the hands of a TSA agent
April 28th, 2011 - 7:36 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattNew York, April 28 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Miss USA 2003 Susie Castillo has narrated her ordeal at the hands of an agent of Transportation Security Administration agent. The 31-year-old spoke to a paparazzo about her ordeal at the Dallas Airport.
Susie was subjected to the enhanced pat-down after she refused the full body scanner. She explained that due to the rate that she travels she didn’t want to be exposed to any more radiation when she got to the airport. During the interview, Susie was clearly traumatized saying she feels violated.
A female TSA agent performed the checks on Susie. Susie believes the agent went too far. She said, “She actually touched my vagina. I am already so upset that they are making me choose to get molested.”
When she told TSA officers about what she just went through, she was given a complaint form to file her complaint formally.
A video of the interview has been posted on the Internet. Susie could be seen crying as she spoke about the experience.
The new TSA checks at the airport have generated a lot of controversy. The full body scanner is the first option that is offered to travelers. If they reject that then they will have to subject themselves to the enhanced pat-down or leave the airport immediately without being allowed to fly.
