Which is why the lawsuit would probably never reach a verdict. As I understand it, this action would be a civil suit, not a criminal one. If the TSO's lawyer saw the TSA "throwing her under the bus", I think they'd drop the suit rather quickly; there's no point in pursuing a case that can't be won.
