Two executives with the Humane Society of Southern Arizona are suspended while investigation takes place into missing animals sent there from San Diego.
I have friends who work for all major airlines and they will prevent him from traveling. They frequently check reservations and if they ever see the scumbag with an upcoming trip, they will write down the confirmation #, flight date / time etc, then the morning of the flight, that employee will ACCIDENTALLY cancel the trip. But they will do it from a personal device with a VPN and not their work computer so it will be untraceable. And in case you're wondering why the employee will wait until the morning of the trip, it's because if it's that close to the departure, the ticket cannot be refunded and in some cases the airline won't even issue a travel credit.
@@Jet-stream898 I also enjoy creating desperate homosexual dating profiles for thieves too. I go all out when creating these ads including name, SSN, DOB, address and other sensitive info about the thug and how they like being pinned while probed. This scumbag in particular likes being cornered at gunpoint while being surrounded by big white men. And there are only TWO ways that thugs and thieves can get these homosexual dating profiles taken down: 1. Go to the court and request that a judge give ME conservatorship over them. 2. Cancel themselves by base junping off of a tall bridge / building without a parachute.
@@Jet-stream898 And I also communicate with hackers and scammers on the dark web. I constantly share the personal information of convicted thugs with these people in the hopes that the thugs will eventually get a taste of their own medicine.
Costco and Sam’s Club care about their profits as a private business. Thief protection is important. San Diego airport does not care because tax payers subsidize them anyways.
Yeah, looks like a plea deal. He definitely won’t be getting away with it for long if he tries it again and a second sentence is likely to be much longer. If he’s in jail for years he will have a more difficult time leading a clean life when he finally gets out in my opinion. It’s a balance between punishment and rehabilitation.
@@pamelapope859 Lots of airports I've been at have solved this a long time ago, by having one-way gates (with surveillance cameras) between luggage retrieval and the areas where anybody can get to. It's not difficult to solve this problem: Don't put luggage carousels next to the main exit doors.
Decades ago, there were attendants at the airport exits that matched your luggage tags with your luggage receipts. Why was this practice discontinued? It’s very irresponsible!
It cost money cheaper to just release them of all liability on your ticket. Today they could do something with automation where you scan a claim ticket to leave.
He won't. Because he's white. If this were a black guy, everyone would be all over his skin colour saying something stupid like "stereotypes exist of a reason" or "where are the BLM activities now?" But he's white, so not a single reference to his skin colour in this comment section.
Every thief needs one eye surgically removed, followed by one year for each offense. Therefor, arriving in prison with one eye, prisoners already know....
180 days!!! Wow crime pays in your country. Imagine all the suitcases the police found and all he managed to get rid of before being caught. He should have got jail time at least.
How people not flying can walk freely in the luggage claim facility? How the airport allows this? Anyone from out side can walk in? Unbelievable! Never seen this in any other country!
Unbelievable that anyone other than ticketed passengers are allowed in baggage pick up areas. Security should also match your ID to the name on the luggage before y ou can leave. The airlines and airport should be responsible for making sure it is you picking up your luggage. These crimes are easy to prevent.
This used to be the norm at SFO and OAK in california back in the 60s.. Airlines wanted to cut costs so there have not been anyone checking and matching up luggage to the tags owners. This non sense has to stop. The criminals are running society with the help of the so called "progressives.
If I remember correctly, there used to be personnel at the exit doors matching your luggage tag receipt to the tag on the luggage. At least this was true at LAX. Airports should at least make the luggage pick-up area secure just like the boarding area. Ticketed passengers only.
The cost of reimbursing stolen luggage is less than paying someone to check every person leaving the airport with luggage. So, don't go to the bathroom before you get your luggage. :>)
The San Diego airport needs to be held accountable. The baggage area is a vulnerable and uncontrolled space! Airport security is the responsibility of TSA. All bags entering the airport are closely monitored and checked. All bags leaving the airport need to be checked and luggage tags (ID) inspected!
There's something wrong with an airport that allows people from outside into the baggage area ? It's a silly airport, ihope they've sorted it out by now. Daft authorities!
@@constancemusa4619 , all US airports allow anyone to enter the baggage claim area since that is also the arrival passenger pick up area. The only “secure” airport areas are the departure areas after one has gone through the TSA checkpoints.
Airtags and smarttags people, time to add trackers to your every luggage. 😎 I had a delay getting my bags in Hawaii, but knew they got moved to late baggage area by simply checking the app.
I lost a checked bag traveling from JFK-NYC to Minneapolis in the 1980s. It was especially upsetting because I’m a concert pianist and lost several important music scores. The bag was never located, but 40 years later one of the scores turned up in a music store in Minneapolis. It was being sold as a used copy. My name was on it, and the clerk knew who I was. She kindly contacted me (in San Francisco) and mailed it back!!! An amazing twist to a sad story. How it got to that store is the mysterious part. Someone either stole or found the bag and sold my music to used bookstores, is my only guess. It’s a shame it can’t talk to me and tell me where it was for 40 years!! 😂😂😂😂
@@SH-vj2ce I feel very lucky, indeed. I sent her a box of chocolates after checking to make sure she could eat them. I submitted my story to a piano magazine and they published it. It’s pretty unusual, like finding a bottle with a note in it on the beach and reuniting it with the person who sent it.
@@danielgloverpiano7693 Isn't life like this, when you've given up hope of "x" here it comes with a bow on top. I'm so glad I read you're comment. It brought a smile to my face after watching such horrible news stories. Thanks for sharing!
In PHX you used to have to show your ticket with the luggage paperwork attached when leaving the luggage area. It was a quick process and I never had an issue and would highly recommend they return this process.
I agree. They need to bar entry to baggage claim, limiting access to passengers only. Pickup guests can meet arrival passengers in an area outside of baggage claim. Having baggage claim wide open and street accessible is stupid.
Yes, the perps should be in federal prison for a few years! The total cost of their crimes is in the thousands of dollars, even if the stolen suitcases were empty.
I do remember as a kid there was someone at the exit checking it was your luggage that matched your claim ticket. Now airlines don't care as they don't want to pay for added employees. If I'm coming back on a domestic flight and I checked in a piece of luggage, no matter what airport, I don't hang around the terminal after getting off the airplane. It's directly to the baggage claim. With international flights, it's not an issue, as you pick up your luggage before leaving the international arrivals area. People from off the streets can't just walk in there. San Diego is small potatoes with this problem. Check LAX. I don't know how many baggage claims there are, but it's a lot. A thief can get lost in the crowd, and pick a different terminal every time he returns. Once he picks up someone else's luggage, just strut out the door and hop on the first shuttle bus to anywhere to make a quick getaway.
He needs to serve prison time for up to at least 5-10 yrs or more! If our broken unfair justice system can send a man to prison for just stealing a pack of cigarettes, then this disgusting thief with no remorse needs to be put in prison longer as well! 180 days in jail is ridiculous.
USA please wake up. It is in such a decline, the ever increasing crime rate, the homeless , the illegal immigrants , the discontent American citizens😩😩😩
I have a very evil and questionable way of retaliating against thugs like this. I collect the personal information belonging to thugs like this and I go all out to make them miserable and put them at risk of being attacked or worse. This thug in particular, I have created several dating profiles pretending to be him. He is portrayed as a desperate homosexual who wants deep penetration while being pinned by another man. And YES this is protected by 1A and there is nothing that this thug can do about this and he doesn't even know that this is going on. He is not the first thug that I've compromised.
This happened to my husband in Frontier Airlines. He flew into Fort Lauderdale to surprise our son at his first college basketball game. He arrived and no bag. Called Frontier and was told his bag was in Atlanta. Would arrive in Florida the next day. Waited and never came. He called FLL and Trenton when he came back and they said they had no bags. We believe it was stolen. Glasses, contacts, etc in that suitcase. Airports need security to verify the bag is the persons that got off the plane
Incomplete solution. A fellow passenger can steal your luggage. Each luggage must be matched with its owner, as identified by the barcoded tag given by the airlines.
Years ago, one had to have their voucher confirmed with the tag on the bag. That was stopped and I was concerned about theft. My son was a fencer and we flew to many national competitions. He put his gear into a hard sided golf bag and as we realized the bag wasn’t on the carousel, the airport workers had lined the oversized items against the wall. I saw an older gentleman walking away with the only bag that looked like my son’s. The fencing sticker we had slapped on the side confirmed it and my son sprinted to prevent the man from reaching the exit. When I arrived the man was insisting it was his golf clubs and voices were being raised catching the attention of many people including security. Luckily, a security guard came over as we were physically blocking his exit. The man tried to explain that we were trying to steal his clubs and I told him to open the bag and prove that they were golf clubs, not the fencing gear and epees it contained. The security guard didn’t bother and instead asked for the voucher and the man said he didn’t have it because it was never needed. I presented the voucher, security verified it was our bag and we left. I wondered how often that happens since golf clubs are easy to sell. We bought a fencing bag that isn’t as sturdy because they are all soft sided, but knew it would never be mistaken for golf clubs.
Arrival areas at airport outside the United States are secure not allowing non-passengers get access to the area. We are so lenient here that we are open to get victimized by thieves.
Except Delhi, India. They actually have organized crime where the airport workers are involved with this. Luckily we caught the guy in action taking our luggages from the belt, but the airport workers were defending him not taking any action, when we brought their attention to it. They said: “he must have been confused” I was out of my mind. 🤯

The real tragedy here is that no one would touch or even question this criminal out of fear of prosecution for violation of the criminal's false rights.
That’s a dumb talking point. No one checks because airports don’t want to pay for law enforcement staff to check for tags and business travelers would complain about delays
@@mrparts , Please see the comment below by cabojacks5106. I should have added that exact statement after my original sentence. And yes, decades ago, there were attendants at the airport exits who matched your luggage tags with your luggage receipts which were matched to your tickets and boarding passes. Also, only actual passengers from that one corresponding flight were allowed in the luggage claim area. There was a full chain of custody to prevent exactly this sort of pilfering and it worked, without creating any sort of delays or inconvenience. Unless of course you consider it a delay and an inconvenience to stop at the exit and wait for ten seconds while an attendant checks to make certain that you are taking only what is yours to take, with no line or delay incurred beyond the ten seconds. Also, next time you think about accusing someone of having a dumb talking point, pause and consider that the person may know something or have experienced something that you have not. I did not pull my original comment out of thin air. I am actually old enough to have experienced such baggage checks by airport security before I was allowed to leave with my luggage. Believe me when I say this, it was no inconvenience even for business and first class passengers because we all understood how easy it was to get one's luggage confused with another passenger's luggage, and what problems that would cause. We didn't even think about this sort of theft because it was nearly impossible for someone outside of the baggage employees to do it even once before being caught. Employees didn't want to risk their jobs over a few thousand dollars worth of other peoples' stuff before being caught, so employee luggage theft was not a concern either. These sorts of problems we face today on flights are mostly the result of deregulation. It is nice to have cheap flights, but not with the crazy behavior, overpacked seating, and poor service we have become accustomed to.
I accidentally took a bag home that looked just like mine. I was shocked the next morning to find kids clothes inside. Fortunately I made the hour drive back to the airport to return it and there was my matching bag still there against the luggage wall. I unzipped it just to make sure it was mine. I always check inside now.
As others mentioned, i find it odd that the luggage claim is on public domain until i saw it in san francisco. That is dangerous In my country you have to pick up your luggage and pass another last scan until you are out, so you are gently forced to remember all your bags before going out to the outside arrival lobby.
That is the whole purpose of the baggage claim ticket you get. This is so silly and easy to prevent. As far as I can remember, probably the '70's, in the San Juan, PR international airport, firstly, no one can enter the baggage claim area from the street. Secondly, they have 2 security guards posted on the only exit and they check your baggage claim ticket against the luggage you are carrying before you can leave. I am amazed I have never seen this in any other US airport. Maybe it is time to get this procedure implemented everywhere.
In the airport of my country nobody from the outside have access to the luggage area only the passengers, anyone else have to wait for the family outside the airport. That's a good option for the airports here in USA.
Wow! In 2023 this is still happening. People ought to file a class action lawsuit against the Airlines charging them with negligence. This happens all over the world.
It IS the airlines who have to pay for lost/stolen, so they should have done something. The airport company /execs did not seem to care less. (long discussion). The HANDLERS got it onto the conveyer and are guiltless because their function was completed. Would someone wish to email the airports and help stop the continued theft? LA is the same, I think.@@Amen.22
A few years ago at Tel Aviv airport I observed an Asian man with a luggage cart full of suitcases attempt to add my luggage to his cart. I screamed across the room, "THAT IS MINE! PUT IT BACK!!!" He did set it down and walked away. If I had been delayed a few minutes I would have lost my very expensive medical equipment. I wanted to keep that equipment with me on the plane, but I was forced to check it in.
It's unfortunate that this is happening. I have always seen it as a bad idea for anyone other than passengers to have access to that luggage area. At the LMM airport, in the Caribbean, you will surely have a problem if you do not present proof that the bag is yours. And no one who is not part of the flight is allowed to enter that area. An area with security personnel.
People off the street should not be able to walk into the baggage area. On my last trip, I went to a UPS Store at the end of my trip and mailed a package to my house of everything I'd purchased during my trip that wouldn't fit in my carry-on bags. I'd rather pay a shipping fee than bring larger luggage that could get lost or stolen.
Another tragedy here is that the criminal received only 180 days in prison and then probation with the condition that he not go near airports unless he is flying. The judge who gave such a lenient sentence should be disrobed and disbarred for life. This is why criminals don't fear the law, and they don't fear victims because the public is punished any time they lay a hand on a criminal.
THANK YOU ! And what is more, he will think up another similar scheme to victimize the honest, law abide citizen and if caught will get the same slap on the wrist. I so agree with you, and it is also a tragedy that law abide citizens can´t do anything.
A long time ago back in the 60s and 70s, there was an employee at baggage claim who would check your baggage receipt with the one on the luggage. There was often a gate to pass through at baggage claim. At some point the airlines stopped doing this.
Because entitled people complained so much about the audacity of having to prove ownership. When it came time for budget talks, it was easy to cut that headache out of the process.
Absolute madness that any member of the public can just rock up and help themselves to the baggage carousel whereas at London Heathrow, only those who have disembarked from aircraft can access the carousels. Close all doors and limited access into that restricted area is the answer as well as sentencing that thief to a few years behind bars
I never understood why the baggage claim area isn’t in a secure area. Anyone from the public can walk in, grab someone’s bag and walk out as if nothing is going on exactly like this dude. He was arrested because he did it too many times, but think of how many people have never found their belongings. Airports should not allow non-passengers in the baggage area.
180 days? There’s nothing that includes justice there. That guy should be locked up for an extremely long period of time. You know that he will do it again somewhere else. Shame on them for letting this idiot go.
I have seen drug addicts and other homeless and mentally ill people sitting in the airport as if waiting for a flight. So anyone can get in the airport without difficulty.
The suitcases of the arrival flights should not be released on the conveyer belt; instead, they should only be released upon scanning the barcodes on the baggage tags that are printed for the passengers when they check in their flights.
Avoid placing valuables, small items, electronics when shipping luggage’s in cargo bags. A very good advice is to place 1-2 “Air Tags” to track your luggage’s being shipped.
There is an old saying that I've been told by someone who flew a lot. There are only 2 kinds of luggage. Carry on or lost. So don't put anything valuable in the stuff you can't keep on your person if you can help it. Including any documents. As lots of people loose their luggage due to negligance of the airport, or gets stolen somewhere along the way. Some say that you have a better chance of getting your stuff to your destination if you send it by courior and have someone sign for it on the other end.
This is outrageous! AND INEXCUSABLE! As a seasoned traveler, I clearly recall having baggage claim tickets that matched the tags on our checked luggage; and airline personnel at baggage claim making sure the luggage was actually ours.
Seasoned traveller but life and education inexperienced. You must complain about everything changing in life then! I’m a seasoned food eater, I remember when prices were lower! 🤣
You can’t get out of Best Buy holding anything without showing your receipt but people can just stroll up to the baggage carousel and take whatever they want. Plane tickets cost too much for terminals to cheap out on luggage security!
@@Jitterbuggn Its a domestic airport, international airports have customs which separates the zones. Additionally, airports have zero incentive to increase the security as airlines/credit card companies are the ones at risk for reimbursement, by which this is a minor business operational cost not worth investing in several airports.

Twice I saw bags almost go the theft route. Fortunately at the time (here in L.A.) they still had the checking of the bags against your baggage claim ticket so the thief was caught immediately. The second time I saw it happen those witnessing the incident weren't sure if it was theft or truly was an accident. The guy grabbed a bag, got partway to the door, seemed a little confused just as another passenger said "Hey, I think you have my bag." Whereupon the first person said "I thought it didn't seem right." So we never knew if it was a ploy or not. And now for my travel tip. Don't travel with solid color suitcases. Especially high end ones. I once watched a show where a thief was interviewed and he mentioned that they rarely look into stealing patterned bags because it's easier for the owners to notice them walking on by with the luggage.

Make sure you download your airline’s app and stay connected, some airlines such as Delta sends you a notification when your bad is on the ramp and what number.
