I agree that all airports should have video surveillance of the checkpoints and baggage pods. My airport has started to screen baggage behind the counter at NWA as an experiment to see how it would work and the majority of the screeners requested that a camera be installed as a protection against false claims. I say false claims because as far as I know we haven't had a problem with screener theft but there have been a couple of times that the video cameras at the checkpoint helped clear screeners that were accused of theft or damage of property. And these cameras are monitored by the airport police who really aren't our best buddies if you know what I mean.
