Southampton N.J , New Jersey State Trooper Joseph Drew reached inside a young man’s underwear to conduct a body search after he said he smelled marijuana during a motor vehicle stop in Southampton, N.J. The search, conducted along a highway, was captured by dashcam and body cameras of the trooper and his back-up officer. The footage was obtained by the New Jersey Libertarians Open Government Advocacy Project.
New Jersey Libertarian Party’s Open Government Advocacy Project , “I did not realize that the odor of marijuana, without more, justified a roadside, under-clothes search of a motorist’s genitals and anus by a State Trooper clad in latex gloves. I received this video in response to an Open Public Records Act (OPRA) request made to the New Jersey State Police.”
Wow, come on now. Way over board.
We see a very big law suit
