"Some people pay good money for that!"

[Politically Correct]

He refused to pay and the matter was ultimately dropped.

Yeah....I wonder why.

New York police bill innocent man $4,600 for rectal probe

That's outrageous. I only pay $400 in Times Square.

"...After the procedure found no drugs, Mr Jackson was released and said he only learned what doctors had done when he found blood in his underwear..."

Am I the only one scratching my head at that???

His ‘posture was consistent with someone hiding items in his rectum’. I can only imagine what that posture looked like.
Now, he feels as though he’s being charged for his own
assault. There had to be ‘solid’ reasons before the police went that far.

It’s only rock n roll but he liked it. liked his Whitley Streiber style a^^^ probe.

[Skywise]

Maybe all those stories of alien autopsies are really police looking for drugs.

Regardless I’m appalled that the police charged him for their investigation.

That’s inherently illegal - what next - if police investigate you for anything they can charge you for all aspects of that to?

Hell no.

Cue in the amper-lance chasers.

he only learned what doctors had done when he found blood in his underwear

"Look over there!"
"Where?!"
"Over there!"
"What's there?!"
"Nevermind. I thought I saw a monster or a bird or something. You're free to go."

"Police officer Anthony Fiorini said Mr Jackson's posture in the car was consistent with someone hiding drugs in his rectum."

I would question how Officer Fiorini would distinguish a, "posture consistent with drugs in his rectum," from a posture with say a banana, D-Cell battery or gerbil in his rectum.

"Police obtained a court warrant to perform a sigmoidoscopy...Mr Jackson...said he only learned what doctors had done when he found blood in his underwear."

How does one not notice that while it's going on?!?!

You cram drugs up your ass if you're flying into Istanbul. Nobody drives around New York City with drugs shoved up their asses.

Police officer Anthony Fiorini said Mr Jackson's posture in the car was consistent with someone hiding drugs in his rectum.

The amazing part is that some judge agreed with him.

That’s just...wrong.

[DesertRhino]

A cop says you are sitting too straight, so they force you to take it up the azz, against your will?

Yeah, that’s not an indication of living in a police state. /s

I would be tempted to find a way to anal probe the anal probers.

Uh, maybe the guy had to go pretty badly, but was trying to get home to “his” toilet. Pretty much everyone I know had done that - who wants to go to a public toilet when you can go to your own?

Cops were arrogant POSs in this case - and he might have a good lawsuit against them.
