US beauty queen molested by TSA
American beauty queen and actress Susie Castillo said she was violated by a TSA screener recently at a Dallas airport when the agent fondled her vagina.
She refused to pass through the full body scanner and was then obligated to undergo a physical pat-down where agents are required to use palms and fingers to probe the body in search of hidden weapons - agents are instructed to check the full body, including breasts private areas.
Being a frequent traveler she often avoids the body scanners because she fears possible health implications. The incident left Castillo very emotional, crying in the airport.
"I`m really really upset that as an American I have to go through this," she said. "I do feel violated. I didn`t think that I would when I had to opt out of the machine. But, I feel completely violated. This woman touched my vagina four times."
Following the incident she filed a complaint with TSA by filling out a complaint card at the airport.
"I`m hoping that other people that feel violated as an American will make these complaints and maybe they will change something if they get enough of them," she said. "Maybe they`ll change something if they get enough of them."
Castillo is a former Miss USA and Miss Teen USA. She is current working as an actress having appeared on of ABC, NBC and other programs.
