Departing SAN after my brother's funeral with my adult daughter and teenage son, my daughter had not packed her "make-up" bag. It was inspected and everything was approved to take on the flight. Due to weather we had a 4 hour lay over at ORD. My daughter felt she had to have a smoke and had to leave the terminal to do that. When she returned a female TSA agent dumped her make-up bag out picked up several items and broke the lids saying "oh! I'm so sorry" then throwing them in a large box lined with a plastic bag. When she got to my daughter's perfume, which had been aproved in SAN the agent claimed they were not allowed. My son that was waiting for his sister watched the agent take the perfume bottles and put them in her purse. When he tried to point this out to another TSA agent he was threatened with arrest for interfering with a TSA agent. He had taken several pictures with his phone of the agent taking the bottles and I sent them along with a complaint to the address my Congressman provided. I never heard a thing or even an acknowledgement of my letter.
