Apparently this same thing has happened to others as well.. almost exactly the same.. using a traffic stop to conduct anal drug exams.. and cases in other states that have been going on since 2009.. "The invasive search that Young alleges he was subjected to is not an isolated incident, his lawyers say, and is part of a larger pattern of cops, eager to make drug busts, crossing the line in order to try to uncover drugs and money at all costs. “They’re really pushing the envelope on these types of searches of people,” said Joe Kennedy, an Albuquerque lawyer who is representing Young. Complaints about police conducting public full-body cavity and strip searches, sometimes without warrants, have popped up in Texas, Wisconsin and Kansas in recent months, alarming civil rights attorneys and advocates. In Young’s case, the officers searched his truck with a drug dog, which alerted them that it had detected drugs in the driver’s seat. The police couldn’t find any drugs in the truck, so they ordered Young to drop his pants and underwear in the public parking lot to search him. Then, at 2 a.m., they got a warrant for a body search at the local hospital, where Young was digitally penetrated and X-rayed, according to the complaint. He was discharged at 4:30 a.m., after cops failed to find contraband in his truck or hidden in his body. He was never arrested or charged with anything throughout the entire ordeal. Later, Gila Medical Center sent him a bill for $600." http://news.yahoo.com/police-turn-routine-traffic-stops-into-cavity-searches-201433510.html
