BUFFALO, N.Y. -- A Transportation Security Administration employee who worked at the Buffalo-Niagara International Airport has been arrested and charged with helping drug dealers at the airport.
The name of the female employee has not been released.
According to the FBI, the TSA employee used her position to help the dealers and accomplices bypass security measures.
The Investigation into the matter began in March of 2010 and involved the FBI, DEA and ICE.
According to the FBI, the TSA employee was responsible for watching people at the airport. Agents say she never transported drugs or money. Rather, she looked the other way when accomplices would go through security, or in some cases, distracted other screeners as suspects and drug money moved through security checkpoints.
A source tells 2 On Your Side investigators have watched money being moved at least two or three times in the past three months alone. The source also says the money was being taken to the southwest border to buy marijuana.

How could you get caught doing that? By doing it sloppily I imagine.
Seems like a good job actually. Two paychecks and you get the added bonus of "missing" all sorts of things that you don't give a fuck about people having. Playing the rebel who works for the government seems fun and relatively risk-free if done properly.
