LAX Cops Accused of Lax Security

Aug 18, 2010

Passengers at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) claim they’ve seen police officers working on laptops, reading newspapers, even doing a crossword puzzle while on the job, according to a published report.

A four-month investigation by KNX 1070 revealed the complaints levied against the armed law enforcement agents who are monitoring security checkpoints for travelers in LAX.

The report posted online includes a memo from then-Los Angeles Assistant Police Chief Frank Febraga informing supervisors of some of the reports.

“These complaint are embarrassing to the organization, and erode the professionalism of Airport Police,” the memo states.

Since the airport LEOs seem kinda bored, can somebody tell me why John Pistole wants to have LEO TSA employees? So the Pistole Packin' Screeners can trade comic books with the regular airport cops?
