Interesting. In ATL, a screener was held responsible for missing a firearm and was (according to TSA) fired.
In LAX, no one is getting fired, but there will be retraining because procedures weren't followed. ??? Haven't they all been through the 'academy' within the last year?
I suspect an LTSO or even STSO was involved and that's why no one is getting fired. I wouldn't be surprised if the cop identified herself and TSA allowed her to take the firearm through - 'screener discretion'.
