About this case

Nearly 20 women who were detained in the San Francisco County Jail allege that sheriff's deputies subjected them to mass and suspicionless strip searches, allegedly in view of male deputies and while body-worn cameras recorded the searches, and that some women faced retaliation after complaining. The federal class action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California and is in the new-filing stage.
