The Transportation Security Administration is giving away hundreds of its full-body scanners to prisons across the country. The machines which produce ultra-revealing images of passengers to reveal hidden weapons and contraband have come under fire from researchers and doctors who are concerned with the potential health effects of radiation exposure. Because of their high price and potential for causing cancer and other illnesses, activists are raising questions as to whether prisons acquiring these scanners is worth the costs. RT’s Lindsay France discusses the issue with Danny Panzella, a journalist at Truth Square TV.
