For those of us on dialup (I got disconnected during the download and would have to begin again, I only saw the first few minutes)...

What are we supposed to see on the video? That she was not detained 40 minutes or forced to clean the water? Does she intentially spill the contents of the sippy cup?

What is it that makes the TSA feel justified in detaining this woman? And then broadcasting the video in their defense?

Does she intentially spill the contents of the sippy cup?

YES. Go to the 1:00 minute mark. That is when the dirty deed is done.

I think the question is, does she deliberately spill the contents of her sippy cup on the floor?

YES

0:58 Black male, white shirted TSA agent is walking her out past the black female, white shirted TSA agent. They are walking together and he is pointing of to the far distant right.

1:00. The male TSA agent starts to walk away, back to the female TSA agent. The woman immediately stops and gets something out of the back of the baby carriage (presumably the sippy cup).

1:01 The male TSA agent stops walking away and looks over his shoulder at her. Her back is to us. We can't see what she is doing but it would be consistant with unscrewing the lid of a sippy cup at chest height.

1:03. She clearly dumps something on the ground and shakes the container empty and puts it back in the baby carriage.

The male TSA agent looks back at her over his shoulder and does a double take. He looks at her and then looks at the female TSA agent. The female TSA agent is standing against the wall looking at the lady.

1:05. The lady turns her baby carriage and backage around and tries to reenter the exit. The male TSA agent stops the carriage and points her out - it looks like to the end of the security line.

1:09 The lady starts to walk that way. The male TSA agent starts to walk back. The blue shirted white officer enters camera view. In the other video, you can see her seated at the end of the hall at the start of the incident. She gets up and walks to the lady. 1:23. A lot of bobbing and weaving by the lady as she talks to the cop.

She most assuredly did dump the contents of the cup on the floor. Even shook it out. That just discredited the rest of her story for me.
