A disabled child was harassed by government agents and his family was caused to miss their flight, all because inept security screeners thought that his medical equipment may have been a bomb. Even children with debilitating medical conditions set off paranoiac ideations and inhumane treatment from the Transportation Security Administration.
3-year-old Apollo, who was born with a cardiovascular abnormality that affects his ability to eat, was suspected of harboring an explosive device after TSA employees believed they had detected residue on the medical supplies that help keep him alive.
Apollo was traveling with his mother Renee Bergeron to California to participate in a campaign for children with physical disabilities called “Everybody Plays” when they were searched and interrogated at the Sea-Tac Airport in Seattle. They were detained so long they missed their flight.
Bergeron said she “walked right up to the first agent and told her ‘my son is tube-fed and this cooler has formula and medical supplies in it’” but no one came to inspect Apollo’s cooler. Instead, Bergeron was instructed to place it on the belt leading into the X-ray machine. Full story...
