WKYC-TV in Cleveland last night was the latest of dozens of media outlets so far this year that have done stories based on our database of Transportation Security Administration gun confiscations at airport security checkpoints.

Like a number of other local stories prompted by the data, the station found that almost everyone who is caught either pleads to a misdemeanor or wound up with their cases dropped. And “I forgot” continues to be a popular excuse for having a concealed weapon at check-in to begin with.
