Well whaddaya know? Strip searching a 13 year old on a hunch IS unconstitutional!
Strip searching 13 year old girls is bad mmmkay.
Today the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit ruled in a 6-5
decision that students cannot be strip-searched based on the
uncorroborated word of another student who is facing disciplinary
punishment. In an even bigger twist, the court has found that the
school official who ordered the strip search, Vice Principal Kerry
Wilson, is financially liable in the case and cannot claim qualified
immunity.
What really gets me is that it was a 6-5 decision, what sort of person would vote it was legal to strip search a 13 year old honor student searching for Advil… yes, Advil.
