Clyburn says tapes 'will show what happened' during house metal detector incident

House Majority Whip James Clyburn says tapes exist that will vindicate him from the metal detector violation fine he was hit with two weeks ago.

“The tapes will show what happened. I’m going let the tapes speak for themselves,” the South Carolina Democrat told the Washington Examiner Tuesday. “The whole issue is I’ll never, ever intentionally circumvent magnetometers, nor would I ever make the jobs of these people who work around here difficult.”
