Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Office of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the Department of Energy Sam Brinton has been charged for stealing luggage at an airport. The gender-fluid, former “non-binary drag queen” was seen in a surveillance video taking the tag off a bag and possessing the luggage. The incident surfaced after a woman claimed her bag was missing, prompting authorities to review surveillance footage.
From The Western Journal:
The woman to whom the bag originally belonged to, claimed that the bag and her belonging in it were worth over $2,000, Alpha News noted. According to Alpha News’ reporting, the police asked Brinton about the bag and he admitted that he had taken it but that his clothes were in it. “If I had taken the wrong bag, I am happy to return it, but I don’t have any clothes for another individual. That was my clothes when I opened the bag,” Brinton reportedly told the police. Alpha News reported that Brinton is scheduled for a hearing on Dec. 19 in Hennepin County, Minnesota.
