To my mind, that says that TSA does not grab, cup, pull or finger genitals.
Therefore, when this happens to passengers, as it does on an hourly basis, the screener is outside of the parameters of a TSA "patdown" because grabbing, cupping, pulling, fingering is NOT "incidental."
With that in mind and a copy of the legal document in hand in which TSA states they don't make contact with genitals, should not the police then accept a complaint of sexual assault against a screener?
When one court refuses to hold TSA screeners accountable I think the chance of success, even if a complaint is taken, is low. Can you afford to pursue a case against TSA or a TSA employee? Without support from a consumer protection group few of us have the resources to mount a battle, one that government can drag out for years.
