Anyone who recalls the horrifying scene from the 2004 film ‘Crash’ in which a police officer performed a ‘body cavity search’ on an African American woman, during a traffic stop …
Apparently these type of searches happen when the officer suspects drugs in the car or on the person.
Seriously cops. How many people would store drugs in their private parts instead of in their car, and simply refuse any search without a warrant???
Apparently, in the U.S. you can be physically violated when only suspected of a crime.
These are two videos that made it to the media. How many instances have happened that were not recorded or didn’t make it to the media?

Smiley-and-West-PRI
Former Seattle police chief Norm Stamper explains why he now speaks out against drones, stop-and-frisk, and the war on drugs. West speaks with one of his mentors, CUNY Graduate Center professor Stanley Aronowitz. Birmingham terrorism victim Carolyn McKinstry recalls the tragic day when Christian extremists from the KKK killed four little girls in the 16th Street Baptist Church. And, Theodore Debro tells us how he witnessed Dr. Martin Luther King react to the bombing during his sermon in Atlanta.
I was amazed to hear Norm Stamper say that even though he knew the police could be overly aggressive, that after he joined the police force – he was sucked into the culture and became a gleeful abuser of the people that he was hired to serve.
