Carlsbad Woman Suing TSA for 'Humiliating' Search

KOB.com reports Carlsbad resident Adrienne Durso is suing the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) after a pat-down in August at the Albuquerque International Sunport.

In a telephone interview, she told the TV station the search was "heavily concentrating on my breast area where I told her I had a mastectomy the year previous, and it just seemed to go on and on."

According to KOB, Durso said she felt "humiliated" as the extensive pat-down happened in front of her 17-year-old son and hundreds of other travelers.

"I felt as though I didn't have any rights other than I had to stand there and let them do what they wanted to my body," she told the TV station.

They are demanding a jury trial, not sure if that's standard or not in these type of things.
