Hannah Cohen, a 19-teen-year-old with a tumor on her brain stem and who has traveled between St. Jude Hospital and her home in Chattanooga for the past seventeen years, was accosted at Memphis International Airport by TSA and airport police.
Hannah is partially deaf, blind in one eye, paralyzed, and easily confused, so when she set off the metal detector at the security checkpoint, it frightened her.
Her mother, Shirley Cohen, tried to inform the TSA agents about her daughter’s condition and her confusion, but the police kept her away. Hannah, trying to get away from the TSA agents who wanted to scan her again, was thrown to the ground, smashing her head on the floor.
She was handcuffed and bloody, as she was let out of the Airport and locked up in Jail East.

It was the cops back in june 30 2015…..lets stop the lying BS
I would ask for more than 100.000 . Make them pay big bucks.
Put them in jail
these are the idiots we depend on for security check ? We are in trouble…I would sue for more than $100,000.00, add a zero to that.
right, in the meantime the terrorist with the bomb gets through, incredible.
Obama’s thugs need to be behind bars.
I would like to know who the TSA agent was, which they failed to name, because a lot of illegal aliens and other non-Americans are now working for the TSA – some of which are on the terrorist watch list. I do not like to accuse anyone of anything, but with all that is going on nowadays, it would be foolish not to question it….. just saying. And someone needs to answer for those illegals and the ones on the terrorist watch list working for the TSA
This is what happens when you have unqualified people doing a job. Much like our president, head of the DOJ etc….
Look who’s the head of the TSA!!!!!!!
Sue the$#%&!@*out if these morons!
