LINCOLN — Female recruits for the Nebraska State Patrol were required to undergo “medically unnecessary and sexually invasive” medical examinations as part of their pre-employment evaluation, a state trooper alleged Tuesday in a federal lawsuit.
Trooper Brienne Splittgerber also alleged that leaders of the State Patrol, over almost three years, failed to adequately investigate the “outrageous” exams of female genitals done by a male Lincoln doctor, and then worked to cover up the matter.
Her lawsuit, filed by Omaha attorney Tom White, asks for unspecified damages for creating a hostile working environment for female recruits and causing emotional distress.
A spokesman for the State Patrol, reached late Tuesday afternoon, said the agency does not comment on lawsuits. But an email from a patrol lawyer, included as an exhibit in the lawsuit, said the exams were “a hernia check” required of both male and female recruits.

So I can sue the US government now for my enlistment, reenlistment, radiation worker, and discharge physicals because they always seemed very concerned with my testicles and butthole!
Splittgerber? I can only imagine the names she was called in school.
Just an aside, on the Netflix show Ozark the strip club is called Lickity Splits. Great name for that type of establishment.
Nope. That is now considered a Government Bonus.
she has been there for that long, and now sues!!!
Give me a break. She looks for an easy payout.
Can’t remember a physical where I didn’t have to turn my head and cough...
If a train leaves New York for San Francisco with two gays on board and a train leaves San Francisco for New York at exactly the same time with two lesbians on board and they travel at exactly the same speed, which arrives at destination first???
DOT and FAA physicals both involve hernia checks.
Now ... maybe this male doctor was getting overzealous checking the female recruits. That’s always a possibility.
Were they going to patrol the airport? That might explain it.
Nebraska is not alone in allegedly having doctor(s) in a position of authority taking advantage.
As soon as the doc puts on those rubber gloves - you pretty much know what is about to happen.
Take out that checkbook, taxpayers!
You are going to write a big check.
Might have been one of those muslim virginity exams.
Got it.
"...which train arrives first?..."
When did we start pixelating all faces of all children, even when they weren’t committing crimes? Are today’s parents of young children that worried about predators?
Kind of like "Curl Up and Dye" for a beauty salon.
