[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 1557973, member: 12952"] [URL]http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/tsa-let-convicted-felon-through-precheck-lanes-dhs-watchdog-says-n326991[/URL] A convicted felon and former member of a domestic terrorist group was allowed to use expedited airport security lines last summer, according to the Department of Homeland Security's internal watchdog. The DHS Inspector General's Office said Thursday a whistle-blower flagged the incident as a "significant aviation security breach," prompting an investigation. It [URL='http://chsdemocrats.house.gov/sitedocuments/oig1545.pdf']issued a report[/URL] saying that the traveler — who had convictions for murder and explosives offenses — had not applied for the Transportation Security Administration's PreCheck program but was selected for expedited security screening through the "risk assessment rules" in the Secure Flight program. A security officer at the airport recognized the felon and alerted his supervisor, but was told to "take no action" and allow the passenger through the TSA PreCheck lane, the Inspector General's Office's report said.
