Wisconsin lawmakers want to expand the definition of a strip search. Lawmakers last week held a hearing on a plan that would clarify stripping someone down to their underwear counts as a strip search.
The clarification comes after the superintendent in Suring Schools stripped a handful of teenage girls down to their underwear to search for a vape cartridge. State Rep. David Steffen says prosecutors couldn’t punish the superintendent because she let them keep on their undergarments. Lawmakers say the change needs to be made to make the law, and the intent of the law, perfectly clear.
