Outraged Giants' A.J. Francis: TSA spilled mother's cremated ashes | Standard-issue apology?

Giants defensive tackle A.J. Francis is alleging agents from the Transportation Security Administration spilled a container of his cremated mother's ashes during a baggage check at an unidentified airport.

Francis posted Monday to Twitter a picture he says shows his open luggage with what appears to be cremated remains spilled on his clothes. A standard "notice of baggage inspection" is included in the photo which was captioned with a profanity-laced criticism of TSA.

Francis, who grew up in Maryland, said in a separate Twitter post that he was in Arkansas with family "celebrating my mom's life" and in California with friends after his mother unexpectedly died two weeks ago.
