A man in New Mexico was pulled over by police for a minor traffic violation. When officers said a K-9 unit sniffed drugs on the driver’s seat, the officers forced the man to undergo invasive medical procedures, including an anal exam.
It may sound nearly identical to David Eckert’s nightmarish story as reported by TheBlaze Tuesday, but this is an entirely different incident.
It does, however, involve the same uncertified drug-sniffing dog in New Mexico. The dog’s name is Leo.
Police in Lordsburg, N.M., pulled over Timothy Young for allegedly turning without using his blinker, according to police reports. Though it is unclear why, the officers with the Hidalgo County Sheriff’s Department suspected the driver of possessing drugs, KOB-TV reported.

I hope their attorneys sniffs out a couple million dollars for their clients.
ReplyDeleteSome cops have had a "no restraint, bend over and take it" mentality for a long time.
ReplyDeleteThose criminals with a badge need to be weeded out and dealt with accordingly.
They certainly shouldn't be allowed to carry deadly weapons.
Sounds like something that would only happen in Eric Snowden's new home. And we thought that the NSA was invading our privacy, looks like they got nothing on LEO.
ReplyDeleteHow can you ooerate a non certified dog..?
ReplyDeleteThe officers involved in this should loose their jobs. They should also be charged with assault and rape. Sick perverts.
ReplyDeleteWhat is coming from the ibama admin in the next 3 yrs.
ReplyDeleteThe whole intent of the police is NOT "law enforcement". It's showing the population (they say they "serve") who's in charge and what happens to those who dare to challenge them. And drug sniffing dogs? What a joke. When cops need a reason to put a citizen in check, bring on the "drug dog", who will ALWAYS "alert" on anything they want it to....then the real fun begins. Like enema's. Body cavity searches. And more enema's. All condoned by judges and State's Attorneys. Offical rape and assualt. Find anything? Nope. But I bet that citizen won't run his mouth to a cop anymore, huh? Which was the whole point all along. How does a "failure to use turn signal" turn into THIS? Anytime and anyway they want....keep cheering, you dummies. It's a wonder they didn't kill him or give him a couple of hundred stitches for "resisting"...
ReplyDeleteOne day, one of these abused citizens will retaliate and kill their abusers.
ReplyDeleteThis victim has been altered for life by these actions and no amount of money can change that.
One day they will screw with the wrong person.
If you dig deep enough, you will find a history of issues with these cops.
I fail to see how any of this is legal. You can not be detained unless a crime has been committed, so how are they getting away with this? At what point do you have the right to an attorney?
What the ???? have we turned into?
Obama hit squads.
ReplyDeleteridiculous!!! "To make matters worse, Eckert’s attorneys say their client was sent a $6,000 bill for the medical procedures he underwent involuntarily."
ReplyDeletei can't believe they really billed the poor guy too. it's a shame.
where are the idiot cops who say he got what he deserved? the cops were justified? we no longer have cops, we have guards.
ReplyDeleteonly a matter of time!
