Man Accidently Runs Stop Sign At Walmart. Cops Get Warrant To Have Colonoscopy On Him

[April]

Sounds like he had to poop and was holding it in..

Hope that the officers that did this feel stupid and then some...unreal.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Well did they at least check to see if he had colon cancer while they were in there ?

 

[DigitalDrifter]

I thought the whole point of an enema was to clean out the bowel - since when does it take three tries to get it right?

Meh, he was full of shit.

Since the intent was to TORTURE!

 

[Rozman]

My doctor wants me to have that done...
Maybe I can go to NM and run a few stop signs....
The downside is the cops told the Doctors that they could not use anesthesia on the guy....

 

[Quantum Windbag]

This is so ridiculous it's hard to believe it's true.

Did they convince a judge to issue a warrant for 'butt clenching'?

I really hope there is more to this than what's in the article. If it happened as described, yeah, this guy should get compensation and the officers and judge responsible should be jailed. I'm less upset at the doctors if they were complying with a warrant, especially since they almost surely wouldn't know the circumstances surrounding the original stop.

It happened as described, and it is worse than you think.

Its rare when you can predict the winner of a lottery, but this guy....$$$$

The Judge,cops, doctors, nurses and everyone else involved should be fired. Period.

 

[Zona]

The interesting thing is, they billed him for those procedures.

 

[Quantum Windbag]

The sad thing is that so few people in this thread want the police to actually pay for raping this guy.

 

[Jarlaxle]

I want everyone involved to DIE. Horribly.

 

[JOSweetHeart]

When there is nothing to hide no one minds and when they find out how dirty the guy never was in the first place, he can legitimately retaliate by suing them.

God bless you and that man always!!!

P.S. Oh and if he does sue, then may he clean up, no pun intended.

This isn't worse. If anything it's potentially slightly better.

There's nothing that has been shown yet to make this anything but terrible, but at least if the guy had a drug history (and maybe, possibly, had actually hidden drugs in his anus before, although that's apparently questionable at best) there's some reason for all this to have occurred to the officers in the first place; I think it would be worse if this were a totally random event.

I'm not trying to excuse anything by any means. I just think if this man had no history of drugs, it would be an even more egregious abuse of authority than it already seems to be.

Even if he had a drug history, which has not been proven one way or the other, it would not justify the warrant, let alone taking him out of the county for torture and rape.

He simply didn't come to a complete stop at a stop sign leaving Walmart in New Mexico. So the cops pull him over. What happens next is proof we are living in a police state.

?You Could Never Anticipate This Happening in the United States of America? | Video | TheBlaze.com

What began as a simple traffic stop ended in a humiliating and nightmarish ordeal for a New Mexico man. It won’t come as a surprise to most people why the man has now filed a federal civil rights lawsuit.

The incident began on Jan. 2 as David Eckert was leaving the local Walmart in Deming, N.M. He reportedly failed to make a complete stop at a stop sign, prompting police to pull him over.

The officers asked him to step out of the vehicle and claim the man appeared to be clenching his buttocks, Eckert’s attorney, Shannon Kennedy, told TheBlaze. It is unclear why police removed him from the vehicle in the first place. However, because the cops believed he was clenching his buttocks, they took it as reason to suspect him of hiding narcotics in his anal cavity.

Police officers detained Eckert while they sought a search warrant for an anal cavity search.

“What is so strange about this case is they held him with no evidence,” Kennedy said. “They seized him to collect evidence, to go on a fishing expedition on someone’s body.”

Upon securing the warrant, Deming police officers took the man to an emergency room, but hit their first snag when a doctor refused to perform the anal cavity search because he believed it to be “unethical.”

So police tried again at the Gila Regional Medical Center in Silver City, N.M., where doctors agreed to the search.



KOB-TV outlined the disturbing series of events that occurred next, details confirmed by medical records and official documents provided to TheBlaze by Eckert’s attorney:
1. Eckert’s abdominal area was X-rayed; no narcotics were found.

2. Doctors then performed an exam of Eckert’s anus with their fingers; no narcotics were found.

3. Doctors performed a second exam of Eckert’s anus with their fingers; no narcotics were found.

4. Doctors penetrated Eckert’s anus to insert an enema. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.

5. Doctors penetrated Eckert’s anus to insert an enema a second time. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.

6. Doctors penetrated Eckert’s anus to insert an enema a third time. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.

7. Doctors then X-rayed Eckert again; no narcotics were found.

8. Doctors prepared Eckert for surgery, sedated him, and then performed a colonoscopy where a scope with a camera was inserted into Eckert’s anus, rectum, colon and large intestines. No narcotics were found.

And some people have to pay money for this kind of treatment.

Of course it wouldn't justify it, but at least it would be a chain of reasoning that can be seen, rather than a totally random act of douchebaggery.

No way!!!!!! Do you know that for a fact??? Not even "twilight?"

You're STILL at it?

Another good reason to despise narcs, the scumbags of law enforcement who give good cops a bad name.

What they should be feeling is intense fear of the consequences for such gratuitously abusive conduct. This is drug law enforcement taken to an incredibly bizarre extreme. It is evidence that an element of genuine insanity has emerged in the American culture and the public should be made aware of it. This is not something that should be allowed to fade quietly into obscurity.

Even if this fellow has a history of hiding drugs in his rectum or swallowing them, and even if those cops actually saw him do it, there is an acceptable limit of action they should be allowed to pursue within civilized standards. After all, what harm would there be to society if he had swallowed some narcotics to avoid being arrested for possessing them? Why were such pathologically extreme measures taken?

When will the goddam drug war be reviewed from an intelligent perspective? It has become a malignancy in our culture.

 

[MikeK]

What comes to mind is the fact that these goddam cops would not have done what they did to this fellow if they didn't think it was perfectly okay. The critical question is why would they believe that? Has the spirit and sense of freedom, liberty, and civil dignity in America so diminished that our police officers take for granted it's okay to do something as cruel and as patently insane as what they did to this man?

The medical professionals who cooperated with them need to read about the rise of the Third Reich and the attending degradation of the German mentality. The first doctor who was asked to go along with these Gestapo cops refused on the grounds of medical ethics and he deserves to be publicly celebrated for that. I intend to find out who he is and to let him know I admire his sense of ethics and basic human decency.
