Police Protocol Tossed Out The Window
People, I know I normally post a subject like this as a funny way of enticing you to check out the ad banners to our show...not this time.
From a Correctional Officer's standpoint (as that's what I do) I cannot stand by the actions on this video. It's hard even for someone like me to watch. I'd like to thank the people below for posting this and I'll gladly repost it now both here and to all my blogs. I cannot believe what I'm looking at and if this happened to anyone even ASSOCIATED with me...neither God, Man, Demon, Army Nor Beast would stop me from reaching any of them.
Simply put, you'd have to kill me because I'd be coming like a Cosmic Force of Nature and I won't be stopped.

I had posted this 2 days ago... the orriginal video has been pulled by either myspace (Fux news cover-up team media) or by the source... but I did manage to find a working version of a follow up video after much searching. That was also pulled by both You tube, and by Google videos, with the help of some really cool friends, I found another working version of the first video. I also took the liberty to blow this video up to max size to make sure that it gets seen. PLEASE PLEASE repost this like wild fire so that it is viewed while it is still available. I also added a link to the news source where I found the video...
(if anyone knows how to copy this video so that it remains available and can be reposted if it pulled from this source, please copy it, and inform me, I will give you my e-mail address to send it to me. Thanks)
Please make sure this gets around! Hope Steffie deserves to be taken as a valuable human being, we need to support her. This could be your wife, your mother, your sister, or your daughter. America (and the world) needs to take a stand on human rights.
This starts here and now by reposting!
Make sure these assholes hear about it!

CANTON -- Hope Steffey's night began with a call to police for help. It ended with her face down, completely naked and sobbing on a jail cell floor.
Steffey says Stark County sheriff's deputies used excessive force and assaulted her during a strip search 15 months ago, according to a federal lawsuit. Stark County Sheriff Timothy Swanson denies the allegation.
Steffey's attorney says her clothes, including her underwear and bra, were stripped from her body by at least seven male and female sheriff's deputies and jail workers. She lay face down in handcuffs at the time.
"Hope begged and pleaded with her ... assailants to stop," the lawsuit says. "There was no forcible penetration but Hope felt as if she was being raped."
The sheriff denies this was a strip search. The sheriff's policy requires officers conducting any strip search to be of the same sex. Her attorney, David Malik, said Steffey, 41, was never asked to voluntarily remove her clothes. In an e-mail, Swanson said Steffey was asked to remove her clothes but refused. He said deputies took them off for her own safety. Swanson declined to comment further, saying the details would come out in court. Channel 3 News obtained exclusive video of Steffey's night in the Stark County jail cell. You can click the link at the bottom of the page to view it. A warning: it is difficult to watch. Steffey declined to be interviewed for this story. But her husband, a high school educator, talked to Channel 3's Tom Meyer.Greg Steffey said his wife is still traumatized. But the couple wants the story told to prevent it from happening to someone else.
"This could be your wife or anyone's wife," Greg Steffey said.
He said he still can't believe this happened to Hope, a 125-pound woman who, earlier that night, turned to police for help.
"You don't treat people like this," Greg Steffey said. "I don't think murderers are treated like this much less people charged with disorderly conduct."
Steffey's ordeal with the Stark County Sheriff's deputies began after her cousin called police for help.In a 9-1-1 call, her cousin said Steffey had been assaulted by another cousin. When a Stark County deputy arrived, he asked for Steffey's driver's license. She accidentally turned over her dead sister's license, which she said she keeps in her wallet as a memento, the lawsuit says. The deputy refused to give the license back and told Steffey to "shut up about your dead sister," according to her attorney.
The sheriff denied that in a written response to the lawsuit.
Eventually, Steffey was arrested and taken to the Stark County Jail. She was later charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
After her clothes were removed, she was locked in a cell. To stay warm, she wrapped herself in toilet paper. She remained in the cell for six hours.
During that time, she was not allowed to use a phone or seek medical attention for injuries she suffered that night, including a cracked tooth, bulging disc and bruises, the lawsuit says.
The sheriff denies that.
