In the below video, Ohio NBC affiliate WKYC investigator Tom Meyer speaks to Greg Steffey, whose wife, Hope Steffey, called 911 after being assaulted by her cousin. When the police arrived, Hope was “mistakenly” treated as the perpetrator, arrested, taken to jail, subjected to a full-body strip search by male and female officers in violation of the sheriff’s department’s own policy, and left naked in a cell for six hours. There is video of the strip search included in the news segment, and it is extremely upsetting:

You might want to look something up before shouting BS. Not BS. That's real. It was all over the news, even Faux Fox News covered it. Not only did they forcibly strip search but they left her naked in her cell for hours. All because she accidentally handed the wrong id to the cops- it was her dead sister's license she carried as a memento. The cop wasn't buying it though. He knew how dangerous young teachers are...You might want to look something up before shouting BS.

They are suing the news station that aired the video because they got death threats after it aired, and all news stories about this refer to them as deputies, i.e. not as ex-deputies, fired deputies etc, so it sounds like they're still employed. AND they claim their actions were justified because the woman was sucidial. AND the Sheriff backs them up.



Fucking insane.



No charges, either.

what's happened to the police? is this a deliberate shift in their purpose, from upholding the law to enforcing obedience? Is this simply the result of an incredibly high-stress job with inadequate mental health support for people on the job?

Oh, those hysterical women. What can you do with them? They just don't listen to reason.



Better have some men forcibly strip them and lock them naked in a cell for hours. It's for their own protection.

Baloney. No one should or does carry a dead sister's driver's license as a "memento," handing it to police who ask for identification. The witch (with a 'b') was obviously trying to avoid arrest for some crime, and hoped that the officer was either dumb or bigoted toward women. Thankfully, the officer did exactly the right thing to arrest her.



The so-called "assault" reportedly occurred because the witch (again with a 'b') pretended to be suicidal. She thought that such an act would get her sympathy, but instead she forced the police to treat her as a "risk to self." For better or for worse, naked isolation is indeed the standard protocol in such cases.

So it's standard to have officers of the opposite gender do the stripping?



And, not as a response to the post I quoted, I've noticed that a lot of you guys on GLP just love blaming the victim.

Thread: Justice For Tracy

When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand.



Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "A quart of wheat for a day's wages, and three quarts of barley for a day's wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!"
