DA promises to prosecute overly touchy pat downs
SAN MATEO COUNTY, Calif. (KGO) — The San Mateo district attorney’s office has a warning for all TSA personnel at SFO — anyone inappropriately touching a passenger during a security pat down will be prosecuted.
Incoming San Mateo DA Steve Wagstaffe says any complaints of inappropriate touching during an airport security pat down will land on his desk.
“The case would be reviewed and if we could prove the elements of it, that it was inappropriately done with a sexual or lewd intent, that person would be prosecuted,” he said.
”If it is skin to skin, if someone were to take their hand and put it underneath somebody’s blouse and touch someone inappropriately and go skin to skin, that’s a felony, and if it’s done simply over the clothing, according to California law, that’s a misdemeanor,” Wagstaffe said.
More pat down searches are expected because some passengers are refusing to go through the image scanning device. Homeland Security announced more scanners are on the way as part of the enhanced security measures at all airports.
Homeland Security Sec. Janet Napolitano has said a passenger’s privacy is protected.
“We built privacy concerns into the procedures when they were deployed,” she said.
Not all travelers are buying Napolitano’s claim.
“It’s ridiculous and it’s not safer, they are just doing it to have us more fearful and there is no reason for it,” passenger Cathlyn Daley
But many passengers at SFO do not mind the enhanced security.
“I would much rather go through a little uncomfortableness and know that I will be safe or a least know that everything was done to protect me,” passenger Suzanne Beaty said.
