Teen girls say they were strip-searched, harassed at juvy detention center

Three girls given a cautionary tour of the local juvenile lockup are suing officials, saying they got more than they bargained for, including a humiliating strip search.

The girls, identified by pseudonyms in the lawsuit, say Multi-County Juvenile Attention Center workers violated their rights by subjecting them to the search, giving them dirty clothes to wear and making comments of a sexual nature.
