CHICAGO - Cook County prosecutors say a 29-year-old man traveling with his mother desperately didn't want her to know he'd packed a sexual aid for their trip to Turkey. So he told security it was a bomb, officials said.

Madin Azad Amin was stopped by officials on Aug. 16 after guards found an object in his baggage that resembled a grenade, prosecutors said.

When officers asked him to identify it, Amin said it was a bomb, said Cook County Assistant State's Attorney Lorraine Scaduto.

He later told officials he'd lied about the item because his mother was nearby and he didn't want her to hear that it was part of a penis pump, Scaduto said.

He's been charged with felony disorderly conduct, said Andrew Conklin, a spokesman with the Cook County state's attorney's office.

Amin faces up to three years in prison if convicted.

I don't think this crosses TOS boundaries, but keep your comments on this side, please...

I guess this means that a year in prison is less difficult than having to explain to Momma that you want a little "help"... ;)

It all depends on who exactly momma is. And is she packing ? [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Lol! I think three years is a bit harsh. I know airport security is no laughing matter these days, but still.

i read about it.. now he is both jailed and humiliated.. he could have just said something else besides a bomb.. sheesh

still seems well-harsh since he didnt actually do anything illegal

Joking about bombs and such at security points like that is a crime. So even though he didn't have a bomb, joking about it is just as much an issue.

Similar to crying "Fire!" in a crowded theater...

yeah true, I guess causing panic is a crime, I just figured, no one would believe him that it was a bomb. Lmao @ penis pump though

Yeah, if he get convicted he'll spend the coming three years getting pumped by penises.

Edit: I wonder if the above statement broke the TOS... :embarrassed:
