4 Milwaukee Police Officers Charged in Strip-Search Case
Submitted by Persona non grata on Mon, 2012-10-15 00:00
Four Milwaukee police officers were charged Tuesday with felonies related to illegal rectal searches of suspects on the street and in police district stations over the past two years.
In one case, an officer held a gun to a man's head as two others held his arms and a third put him in a choke hold while jamming a hand into his anus, purportedly searching for evidence, according to the criminal complaint. Another man bled from his rectum for several days after his encounter with police, the complaint says.
This is a direct result of the failed war on drugs.
