Night after night, our hidden cameras captured what security experts tell us is a disaster waiting to happen.<\/p>\n
The X-ray machines were off, the metal detectors were closed, and bags with unknown contents were carried to the secure side of the airport where the planes are.<\/p>\n
We watched as a security guard let people with purses, coolers and suitcases
\nwalk right through – bags unchecked.<\/p>\n
Even more surprising, some of the people you trust to keep you safe planned it this way.<\/p>\n
Larry Wansley is widely regarded as one of the nation’s top airline security experts. “It’s a frightening situation, I’ve just simply never seen anything like it,” he said. “I really honestly have not.”<\/p>\n
He’s the former head of security for American Airlines, and currently consults the U.S. Government and airports around the world. We brought him in to take a look at what we found.<\/p>\n
“It is not security,” he said. “It truly is not security. Anything can be going through there. I don’t get it.”<\/p>\n
