Ex-LA TSA worker charged, tied to anti-US website [View all]

Source: AP

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Authorities are examining a website they say is linked to an arrested airport security screener that contained letters declaring America would be "reduced to nothing" by events "greater than 9/11."

The letters were posted on a website apparently operated by Nna Alpha Onuoha, 29, who was charged Wednesday with one count each of making a false threat and making threats affecting interstate commerce, the day after quitting his job with the Transportation Security Administration at Los Angeles International Airport.

The site under investigation includes Onuoha's name and a birth date that matches public records for him. It contains letters celebrating Jesus and Israel, condemning al-Qaida and lamenting that Satan has corrupted so many. There also are photos of Onuoha posing with crosses.

In one posting attributed to Onuoha, he said a message would be released Sept. 11 and America "will be reduced to nothing."
