VIDEO: TSA BEATS AND JAILS Disabled Teen With Brain Cancer | The Daily Caller
Nineteen-year-old Hannah Cohen and her mother Shirley are suing the TSA after a Thursday incident in which agents at the Memphis International Airport beat and jailed the young woman during a security check.
Hannah — who is also partially deaf and blind in one eye — set off a metal detector while passing through security.[h=3][/h]“They wanted to do further scanning, she was reluctant, she didn’t understand what they were about to do,” Shirley told WREG. “She’s trying to get away from them but in the next instant, one of them had her down on the ground and hit her head on the floor. There was blood everywhere.”Hannah was arrested and sent to “Jail East,” though authorities eventually threw out the charges.

The TSA released a short statement on the incident, noting that “passengers can call ahead of time to learn more about the screening process for their particular needs or medical situation.”
This is criminal. Those agents need to be fired and jailed themselves. And they better hope like hell no further damage to her head results from their actions.
Vid is in the link. Her whole face is bloody!
