"The defendant did not submit this bag to X-ray screening at the Charlottesville airport," the federal indictment states.
Deiter, and the gun, traveled on "several other flights" over a two-day period, prosecutors allege.
Everyone should be subjected to the same common-sense screening. X-ray of belongings, walk through / hand held metal detector, Explosive Trace Detection / Explosive Trace Portal. Nothing more, nothing less.
