I don't know.

What I do know is this:

"You can't professionalize until you federalize." - Comrade Tom Daschle. This is hardly professional behavior.

These are the people who have been caught so far. There are lots of other claims that are finally being paid by the TSA, but there is nothing being done to prevent further theft. Obviously the threat of being caught and "vigorously prosecuted" isn't enough.
