"Do You Have It Up Your Ass?": Drug Warriors in New Mexico Go Too Far


"The truth is in there somewhere."

Probing The Public


Notes From The Police State  -  A new Reason TV video is released "Do You Have It Up Your Ass?": Drug Warriors in New Mexico Go Too Far. Incorporating footage from cameras on the dashboards and lapels of New Mexico law enforcement officers, the program tells the story of Timothy Young, a man who was pulled over in Lordsburg, New Mexico, for a traffic violation in October 2012.

Hidalgo County deputies looking for drugs searched Young’s truck for more than two hours. After a K9 deputy claimed that his dog Leo alerted on the driver’s seat of Young’s truck, deputies obtained a search warrant to search Young’s body. Deputies then drove Young to the Gila Regional Medical Center, located an hour north in Silver City, New Mexico.

Young was X-rayed and, while still in handcuffs, subjected to a digital search of his anal cavity. No drugs were found.
