TSA agents are caught on surveillance camera stealing from passengers' luggage at Miami International Airport

Surveillance video caught TSA agents at Miami International Airport stealing from passengers as they went through security.

The shocking footage shows Labarrius Williams, 33, and Josue Gonzalez, 20, working together to steal money from passengers’ bags at security checkpoint E on June 29.

Video provided by the Miami-Dade County State Attorney's office shows Williams shifting around items in a bin and then walking away while Gonzalez puts his hand on the item.

Gonzalez is then seen gripping something in his hand while removing it from the bin, then immediately dropping something in his pocket before returning to the conveyor belt.

Another clip shows Gonzalez starting to unzip a purse as the bin works its way down the belt.

He starts by opening the larger main pocket, then the smaller front pocket when he pulls out a wallet and drags it to the corner of the bin behind a larger bag.

As the bin moves along, he opens the wallet and fingers through the cash that hangs out of it. While the bin goes down the line, he continually comes back to it.

His hands are in the bin touching the bag up until it must go into the x-ray machine. Then he puts his hands into his pockets and walks back to the end of the line.

On July 6, Williams, Gonzalez and a third TSA agent Elizabeth Fuster were arrested for allegedly removing $600 from a passenger’s wallet while they were going through security.

Labarrius, fine Amish name. Or is it Mennonite?

And America hired 200K of them to permanently staff TSA and Fed.gov

And we wonder why finding a good plumber needs a week and costs $500 just for him to show up.

Dummies—if they had stolen the money in CA it would have been legal—under 1K.

Very low penalties for completely violating their public trust!

Always keep your money folded in your fist when you go through TSA. It goes through the metal detector just fine.

Leave expensive jewelry at home and always wear an inexpensive watch, or no watch since the phone is all.

They are after small valuables easily concealed so that nikon or anything bigger is probably ok. Probably. I’ve seen thieves brazen beyond belief.

My brother was in the Miami airport about 5-8 years ago, on a vacation.
He said it looked like a 3rd World dump.

He loved Florida though, that was his only complaint that I can recall.
