California inmate's wife who was sexually violated during strip search wins $5.6 million in settlement, lawyers say
Christina Cardenas was subject to a strip search by prison officials and another strip search by a male doctor who sexually violated her, a lawsuit said.
The wife of a California inmate will receive $5.6 million after being sexually violated during a strip search when she tried to visit her husband in prison, her attorneys said Monday.
After traveling four hours to see her husband at a correctional facility in Tehachapi, California, on Sept. 6, 2019, Christina Cardenas was subject to a strip search by prison officials, drug and pregnancy tests, X-ray and CT scans at a hospital, and another strip search by a male doctor who sexually violated her, a lawsuit said.
"My motivation in pursuing this lawsuit was to ensure that others do not have to endure the same egregious offenses that I experienced," Cardenas said.

Ok wait, so were the people that took part of this not jailed? That's what I want to know. It are they still working within the system which could result in more?
You must be new here..
Edit: bad meme, I don’t follow celebrities. James Franco isn’t a good guy it turns out
I appreciate the seconding, but also find it ironic considering the article we're replying to that you (completely unintentionally, I don't doubt) chose a meme featuring sex pest James Franco.
Got it, had to look it up, I try to follow zero celebrity things, but you’re totally right and I’ve since edited my comment
You're good, like I said, it clearly wasn't intentional, we all pick up different bits of information along our ways, this is probably one of those things that circulated in feminist spaces more than celebrity ones, but either way, now more people know!
Most definitely, thanks for shining a light, more (accurate) information is always better for everyone, cheers
Well shit I’m glad you admitted your faux pas but you could have at least left it up… because now I’m totally confused.
lol just google “first time meme”
The hanging meme… got it. Thank you!
