(KOB)- A woman suing the TSA for an invasive pat-down at the Albuquerque Sunport speaks only with KOB Eyewitness News 4.
Adrienne Durso of Carlsbad, California spoke over the phone she describes her experience during a TSA pat-down at the Sunport back in August.
Heavily concentrating on my breast area where I told her I had a mastectomy the year previous and in just seemed to go on and on, said Durso.
She says she felt humiliated as the extensive pat-down happened in front of her 17 year old son and hundreds of other travelers.
I felt as though I didnt have any rights other than I had to stand there and let them do what they want to do to my body, Durso continued.
She says she knew her rights had been violated so she asked to speak to a supervisor who she thought would help.
All the while her son stood by her side and couldnt remain silent anymore
My son, who Im very proud of spoke up and said I went through the metal detector and I did not get a pat-down to which the supervisor said well you dont have boobs, she said.
