http://www.aei-ideas.org/2014/01/new-mexico-man-receives-1-6-million-settlement-for-medical-anal-rape-in-a-futile-attempt-to-find-drugs/
http://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/26/opinion/sunday/kristof-3-enemas-later-still-no-drugs.html

A man was stopped for a traffic violation which led to anal rape and forced surgery performed by police officers and doctors.

"In a futile attempt on January 2, 2013 to find drugs inside his body, police and doctors committed medical anal rape on Eckert six times over a 12-hour period: an initial X-ray that found no drugs (why didn’t they stop there?) was followed by two digital rectal probings and then three forced enemas, a second forced X-ray, and then finally forced sedation and a surgical colonoscopy. Result? No drugs."

Settlement: $1.6 million
Police Punished for Crimes Committed: 0
Doctors Punished for Crimes Committed: 0
Tax payers punished for crimes committed: 774,769 (population of Hidalgo county)

Those exams are not considered rape. Rape is forced sexual intercourse. Misleading title and bullshit story. My condolences to real rape victims having the word tossed around like a rag doll.

Not misleading at all.


The doctors put their fingers in his ass without his consent.

stupid cops - the first x-ray shoulda been enough - chance an x-ray would lie - 0.00000000000000000001%

chance those cops learned science from watching Fox News - pretty high!

But no cops or doctors were punished, giving them the green light to perform more heinous crimes.

Because people are actually supposed to be punished when they commit crimes!

All that bullshit wasn't free. Yeah the 1 guy got money and was compensated but the entire county paid for an excessive show of force by the 'law enforcement' agency.
The benefit of this type of thing could never possibly outweigh the cost i.e. you're never going to find enough drugs inside somebody to justify spending even $10k searching.
