ZET,
You can smuggle more than drugs!!... Knives, explosives etc.etc.
Now, I am sure that this child was not smuggling and was merely a random number, in a line of passengers, that was the next one to be searched.
Radeng,
Having looked at the video, the search looked like a text book search, and that was probably because she new she was being filmed. Had she done a scant search, you can be sure someone would be saying she was not being thorough enough and would have posted it as an example of a bad search!!.
I feel sorry for this staff member because all she was doing was fulfilling her job as laid down by the US government and it is they that you should be taking to task, not this staff member.
