Although in many of the most egregious stories, it seems the Phoenix airport police are a major factor... attacking Phil Mocek and attempting to erase his video evidence, a police office prompted and convinced the hesitant TSO to press sexual assault charges against Yukari Miyamae (according to Yukari's interview), and the police refuse to take sexual assault charges against a TSA agent.

To me that is a striking contrast - prompting the TSO to press charges against a passenger, but refusing to accept a police report from a passenger against a TSO. I wonder if the blogger has a basis for a lawsuit on the grounds of due process or unequal enforcement or similar.
Phoenix is on my list of places never to set foot in again, both the city and the airport. Tucson is 1000 times more convenient.
