Sounds like the tax payers got it this time.

What I find interesting is that showing nervousness when stopped and questioned by the police is grounds for getting a warrant to rape and torture a citizen at the hands of law enforcement and medical professionals. I submit, being nervous when stopped by law enforcement for even minor traffic infractions should be considered the "reasonable man's" demeanor after reading accounts such as these.

I was stopped once and the trooper commented on me being nervous - that was before I heard about this. The last two times I was stopped were both bogus, first for 58 in a 45 when there isn't' a 45 zone on the road (passed the trooper in a 55, so technically I was in violation, but he told me three times "58 in a 45,") and the second for "disregard stop sign" when I sat at it for 20 - 30 seconds waiting on traffic. Both times I got warnings, but that is not the point. My faith in traffic law enforcement doing even a basic job is greatly diminished after these stops. My faith in law enforcement being reasonable during the stop is greatly diminished after stories such as this.

If the courts uphold this rape and torture as executing a legal warrant and find that law enforcement and medical staff acted properly my already shaken faith in the system will drop to absolute zero.

And here I thought Deliverance was set in Georgia.

But for the record, it is clear I have an ingrained distrust of authority that colors my perception and responses here.
