- A Los Angeles Chargers player says he was sexually assaulted by a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agent at a California-area airport.
- “I really just got sexually assaulted by TSA at @JohnWayneAir. After I asked the gentleman to please stop BC I’m uncomfortable and I feel that this part of the check is unnecessary (After he felt what was needed),” Chargers defensive end Sebastian Joseph-Day wrote in a tweet on Friday. “Then they told me I was the problem after 3 TSA agents swarmed me.”
- In his Twitter thread, Joseph-Day called the incident with the TSA agent “extremely unnecessary and dehumanizing,” adding that he feels he’ll have to “jump through hoops” just to file a complaint on the situation.
