Brinton: Oops! They did it again // (Scott Johnson).

We have been following the story of Sam Brinton, Department of Energy official (they/them/theirs). Brinton is a “openly genderfluid” federal government official, but it has been a disgrace. Alpha News reported that Brinton was arrested last month for felony theft after allegedly taking a woman’s luggage from MSP Airport.

We loved the local angle. The New York Post reports that Brinton, a “non-binary nuclear officer” has been charged in a ‘second luggage heist’ — this one was at Harry Reid International Airport in Vegas, on an unknown date. According to the Post, Brinton “reportedly has sticky hands for suitcases.” This account is based upon a sketchy local story. If you are interested in pattern recognition, you might think that there is more to come as airports review their baggage carousel videos. But that is where we are right now.
