Girls Forced To Spread Fat Rolls In Strip Search

"State judicial officials repeatedly violated the constitutional rights of two teenage girls by strip-searching them without probable cause, a federal appeals court ruled Tuesday. A three-judge panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York found that officials legally searched the children upon entering the juvenile correction system but crossed the line with a policy of strip-searching inmates after court hearings and transfers. The girls, 13 and 14, described searches in which they were forced to lift their breasts and spread out rolls of fat. The 13-year-old girl cried throughout one of the searches. Another was conducted with other inmates present... While the court identified four instances of unconstitutional searches, it sent a lawsuit filed by the girls' parents back to a Connecticut federal court to hear further argument about whether officials inappropriately searched one of the girls while looking for a missing pencil." ?WNBC (US)
