Investigators were unable to corroborate specific allegations that a Transportation Security Administration supervisor instructed air marshals to racially discriminate against passengers at Florida's busiest airport. But investigators for the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Inspector General uncovered other concerns about racial profiling of passengers by other TSA supervisors at Orlando International Airport, according to a report sent to lawmakers last week.
