(NaturalNews) The reputation of the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) continues to plummet with new reports about a scandal involving drug smuggling. Law enforcement officials recently arrested Minnetta Walker, a TSA "behavioral detection officer" from Buffalo Niagara International Airport, for aid drug traffickers in bypassing security.

While innocent seniors and families with children were making their way through the naked body scanners and "enhanced" pat down areas, Walker was busy helping drug smugglers bypass them, according to reports. And because of her exclusive position at TSA that permitted her to freely roam the airport and look for suspicious activity, Walker was able to successfully pull it all off quite simply.

"TSA screeners generally do not question the activities of a [behavioral detection officer]," said FBI Special Agent Gary P.

"This places Walker in a unique position to help individuals bypass security procedures and to detect the presence of law enforcement activity."
