    In November 2014, attorney Bonita Bourke alleged that a Sussex County Sheriff’s Officer placed a handheld metal-detecting wand up her skirt while she was passing through jail security. The incident reportedly occurred in August 2014 when Bourke was visiting a client at the Keogh-Dwyer Correctional Facility in Newton. Bourke filed a lawsuit claiming that the officer placed the wand between her legs and moved it upward under her skirt, repeating the action after instructing her to spread her legs.

Why This Matters
