How a French scholar was treated at US airport

I'm curious how good the translation is. I could read the translated article (the English version), but there were clearly some weird words. Is there anything off in the translation at a higher level?

I was a few paragraphs into it when I noticed something was off.

To me, that is mind blowingly good.

I read the French version and only skimmed the English version. Didn't seem anything terribly off to me.

What about the part where the policeman beat the woman for having a child running in all directions?

French version: "Une policière engueule une femme dont le garçon de trois ans court dans tous les sens".

So, the policewoman bawled the woman out. No beating involved.

I was worried about that as well.
