Has a TSA agent ever caught a terrorist?

Occasionally we hear about a TSA agent confiscating something prohibited but I can't recall an actual terrorist ever being caught.

You have to understand what we are doing.....we no longer manufacture durable goods here to create jobs. We manufacture regulations which creates paperwork jobs. We manufacture a need for safety which creates security and inspection jobs.

I left a quarter in my pocket once going through the metal detector. They pulled me off and did a full body search because of it. I suppose that's some kind of regulation.....
