TSA Agent Michael Polson arrested for felony sexual

battery on pilot

-- Alleged sexual predator still screening passengers?

(Alexandria, VA) In court papers filed in US District Court, TSA

agent Michael Polson is listed as being arrested for felony sexual
battery of an off-duty pilot while on-duty as a screener at the
Washington Dulles airport.

The civil rights lawsuit accuses Polson of forcefully striking an

unnamed off-duty pilot in the groin during a non-standard pre-check
security pat down. Polson was placed under citizens arrest by the
pilot at Dulles Airport and removed from his TSA screener duties on
March 10, 2016, but TSA has apparently tried to cover up the
incident, resulting in a federal lawsuit. Video recordings and
police reports of the incident corroborate the allegations and
arrest. Despite requirements that whenever a TSA agent is arrested,
that TSA must investigate and take appropriate action, TSA has
claimed that the felony sexual battery caught on video did not
occur, and has allegedly tried to hide and destroy copies of the
evidence. The TSA agent, Michael Polson, is listed in public
records as living at 617 Carlton Otto Lane #23, Odenton, MD 20120.

The case stems from the alleged felony sexual battery by the TSA
screener being in violation of the victims constitutional rights of
the 4th Amendment to be free from unreasonable searches. After the
pilot made a citizens arrest in front of the Dulles MWAA Airport
Police and the TSA of the TSA agent for a felony sexual battery,
Virginia law required that the TSA agent and the victim be brought
before a Magistrate judge. This case pursues the TSA screeners
unconstitutional attack since local authorities allegedly refused to
even accept a complaint, and disregarded video and other evidence.
The MWAA Airport police are part of a separate lawsuit for their
refusal to permit due process and investigation of the attack.

When contacted regarding this matter, TSA refused to comment, citing

privacy concerns and ongoing litigation.
