Dozens of TSA Employees Fired Over Illegal Gambling (Video)

An illegal gambling ring involving Transportation Security Administration workers at Pittsburgh International Airport had been broken up with dozens of employees either fired or suspended.  Some 300 more employees working at the airport were also scrutinized as a result of the scandal.

From KDKA News:
Sources confirm TSA employees on the job set up an office betting pool of sorts, employees betting year-round on all of the big sporting events, the Super Bowl, NCAA Final Four, the World Series, the Stanley Cup and more. The TSA says no-one made big money, and there will be no criminal charges filed. However, sources confirm the employees recommended for termination did "make a little money off of the top."
TSA sources confirm none of the betting affected any of the security at the airport.
Five employees have been terminated, forty-seven suspended and ten more were given written reprimands. 
The TSA released this statement: "TSA holds all of its employees to the highest standards of conduct and accountability. The agency has taken the appropriate and necessary steps to discipline those involved to include employment terminations, suspensions or letters of reprimand."
