Check out this thread in the "Debate" forum:
The Spokesman-Review: TSA paid Tim Rasmussen $225k for fall during airport screening
Good news: he was awarded $225,000 for his injury.
Not good news: he had sued them for $1 million.
Bad news: he's a prosecutor and it took
over 4 years from the injury (April 2008) to the settlement. Not a lot of hope for the non-lawyers among us.
But I wish you good luck. If you're in WA, perhaps Mr Rasmussen can offer assistance.
