A commercial airline pilot gets into a heated confrontation with TSA after refusing to cooperate with the screening process, but things escalate when he returns to the airport without identification. Police get involved, the pilot ends up in handcuffs, and what started as an argument over airport security rules leads to citations and a one-year ban from the airport. Drew Baxter breaks down the bodycam footage, the pilot's decisions, and how a situation that could have ended quickly spiraled out of control. Drew Baxter is a retired police lieutenant and former detective with nearly 29 years of law enforcement experience at the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office in Tampa, Florida. He worked in 911 dispatch, undercover narcotics, informant handling, and wiretap investigations before retiring as Commander of the communications center. He's an expert instructor in Interviews & Interrogations and Courtroom Testimony & Demeanor.
