A few months ago, co-workers watched as Rolando Negrin tested the airport's full-body imaging machine.

He allegedly forced the co-worker to get on his knees and apologize before issuing the beating.
Negrin has been charged with aggravated battery.
The Transportation Security Administration said Negrin has been suspended and an internal inquiry has been launched.
The full-body scanning machines, which have been used in the U.S. since 2008, have sparked outcry from privacy watchdogs like the American Civil Liberties Union.
Some Canadian airports introduced the scanners in January.
