Why is the TSA so camera shy? Man forced to leave airport for filming in public space in 2009. Are we winning the war on terror yet?

Video recording made by Phil Mocek at Albuquerque International Airport, just outside the TSA barricade, on November 15, 2009, from approximately 2:34 p.m. - 2:38 p.m. Mountain time. This video (without the subtitles) was presented by the prosecution in State of New Mexico v. Phillip Mocek in the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court on January 20, 2011. After about an hour of deliberation, a jury found him not guilty of four misdemeanors with which he was charged.

More information about the case, including addresses for Mocek's legal defense fund (he's paying for this out-of-pocket), can be found in an FAQ maintained by The Identity Project at http://papersplease.org/wp/mocek

Audio of most of the trial is available for download or streaming on the Internet Archive. There is an index at http://papersplease.org/wp/2011/01/24/audio-state-of-new-mexico-v-phillip-mocek/

Visible and audible in the video are Mocek, Albuquerque Airport Police Department officers Robert F. "Bobby" Dilley (116), Landrow "Wiggy" Wiggins (137), and Julio A. De La Peña (135), and TSA staff LTSO Jonathon Breedon, TSM Gerald Romero, STSO Anthony M. Schreiner, Greg Martinez, and BDO Laura Moots.
