Even Ruth Madoff Gets the TSA Theater Blues

July 23, 2009 at 9:05 AM | by juliana | 0 Comments

There's not a lot of sympathy to be found for anyone bearing the last name Madoff these days. Even though Bernie's stewing in a North Carolina prison, nothing can change the fact that so many folks (collectively) lost billions of dollars in his Ponzi scheme. We're sure the victims have played out many fantasies in their mind as to how they would harm Bernie and co. but there might be a just punishment that's not quite as gruesome.

The Madoff matriarch, Ruth Madoff, recently had to suffer an experience that we would wish only upon some of our worst enemies--a tortured go-round at the security checkpoint at La Guardia Airport in New York.

The NY Post reports:

She was spotted at La Guardia the other day getting on a US Airways flight to Raleigh, NC, en route to the prison in Butner, where her Ponzi scum husband Bernie Madoff was recently transferred. "Her hair was noticeably darker, and she was wearing ripped jeans and a baseball cap," our spy said. "She made such a scene going through security and held up the line. She was overheard apologizing to the people waiting behind her, saying, 'I'm sorry for the holdup, I'm not together today.' "

Normally in a case like this, we'd send Ruth some tips on making it through security faster. But we're just gonna go ahead and keep that one to ourselves. However, this did lead us to brainstorm about an alternative punishment for non-violent offenders--putting them through a never-ending loop at a TSA security checkpoint. Related Stories
