A stripper's constitutional rights were violated during a police search according to a verdict handed down by a jury in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque.
Dusenberry and others alleged they were forced to stand, kneel or lie down in scant garments while searched by police.
According to court documents, the lawsuit alleged the dancer's Fourth Amendment rights to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures and their Fourteenth Amendment rights to substantive and procedural due process
Defense attorney Arlon Stoker said if strippers don't have rights, then none of us do
On March 2, 2006, Officer Glenn Slaughter executed a search warrant on the Phoenix Nightclub, based upon alleged violations of the New Mexico Liquor Control Act.
Dusenberry claims she was taken to the back room and strip-searched by female San Juan County Sheriff's deputies, who were called in to assist the state police, according to court records.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs argued there was no basis to order a strip search, saying it was outside the scope of the search warrant.
"The warrant was to search business records," Defense Attorney Joe Romero said.

Not at all Canuck. Sexual harrasment is WRONG no matter who it happens to. That is a given. I was just saying that they shouldn't be called ladies thats all. Any female that rubs her privates on a man for money will never be a "lady" in my book.

As a woman living in a hell zone world run by male values, with a few haves, and many billions of have nots, not expressing womens values of sharing,equality, cooperation, unity, like the natives lived, or maybe the Venus Project, because banks are slavery, I happen to see it a little differently.
No women should ever be a stripper or prostitute or be demeaned in any way. This is patriarchal usary and abuse of women. That being said, all these women to me are ladies inside, WAITING FOR FREEDOM AND EQUALITY, and hopefully the Venus Project, not to mention an advanced cosmic type matriarchal world of equality. The problem does not lie with the ladies, but with the patriarchal male oriented system and we're waiting for a changed attitude. The existence of strippers isn't a female value.
So they're still ladies. Its the men who have fallen.
Those cops were disgusting PIGS.
