Ninth Circuit rules that school acted appropriately when strip searching a 13-year-old girl in a public area (a search that exposed her breasts) because the school had reason to believe she was in possession of….ibuprofen.
(UPDATE: There seems to be a typo in the quote the article takes from the dissenting judge. Looks like he objected to the girl being forced to expose her “pubic area” to school officials, not her being forced to expose herself in a “public area.” So instead of having to expose her breasts in public, she had to expose her genitals in private to school officials. Not sure which is worse.)
