I watched a news clip from
abcnews.com about police violating people’s rights. In a video called “Have These Cops Gone Too Far?” a number of cases were brought up where victims claim
that they have been harassed by police officers. In one segment, a group of
women were charged with DUI (driving under the influence) and were arrested. They
were taken to jail and searched. They were then put into cells without any
privacy and were being recorded by cameras. The officers asked them to change
from their normal clothes to prison overalls for mug shots. After that was
completed, they told the women to change back to their normal clothes. During that
whole process, the women claimed to be recorded. Their privacy rights were
violated because there were supposed to be given curtains to change and use the
bathroom behind. But they were given no such thing. If any newscaster asked me
how I felt I’d say that I was outraged. The police officers had no right to do
such thing to me and they should be ashamed. They have no feelings for other
people, they’re cold hearted. Humiliating people like that is just absurd and
inhumane. Fortunately, I’m not those victims but I feel bad for those who have
been treated in such ways.
