This incident has made The Smoking Gun today. Quite a bit of detail in this article.

As part of its probe of the pranks, investigators spoke with other TSA employees, five of whom confirmed that the officer had tried to trick passengers into thinking that cocaine was found in their luggage. One worker said that they told the officer, “Don’t do that,” when a victim of the prank appeared distraught.

Only one of the workers interviewed, however, informed a supervisor of what was transpiring at the security checkpoint.
"Don't do that." Yes, I see a lot of credible coworkers here. All 5 of them should have been running to the supervisor to get this jerk off the line. Instead, one says "don't do that" and only ONE decides something is wrong here. ONE.
