Tamsen Reid Gives Press Conference On Alleged Strip Search By Cop

Tamsen Reid, the Utah teenager who claims a police officer forced her to strip in the snow, gave a press conference today about her incident. Reid, who is suing the county of Box Elder, said, “Cops are supposed to uphold the law. I figure they’re always out to do the right thing.”

Reid said she believed the deputy’s claim that she had a warrant out for her arrest and assented to the strip search. Later she found that there was no such warrant. [KSL]
