Supreme Court Won't Hear Body-Scanner Appeal

Posted by samzenpus on Monday October 1, 2012 @05:08AM from the scan-me dept.

stevegee58 writes "After a long string of legal setbacks, the case brought by Jonathan Corbett challenging TSA's use of full body scanners and enhanced pat-downs has come to an end. Today the Supreme Court declined to hear the case, so current TSA practices will stand. The TSA started allowing the use of the advanced imaging technology in October 2010."
