Woman Suing Prince George's County Jail For Being 'Forced' To Take Off Bra

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (WUSA) - - A Prince George's county woman is suing the County Department of Correction because she says she was forced to remove her bra before visiting a family member.

"I have never been so humiliated in my life," said Tanya Ellis, "first of all, people in their jail cells were looking at me...I had to carry my bra in my hand the whole time!"

The incident happened in May, 4 months after the Department first became aware of the complaints from other women.  At the time, the Director said it was a training issue.  However, she could not comment on this pending lawsuit.

Attorney Jimmy Bell said, "They're treating women differently because of their sex.  They knew about it and continue to do it to this day."

"It clearly states no skimpy t-shirts, no seductive t-shirts but how more seductive can you be if you're walking through a facility with no bra!," Ellis said.

Ellis is suing for $1 Million.  Her lawsuit joins another where two women, who visited on a different day, are also suing the Department, the Director, and the officer.

No bra-burning at Atlantic City? « Media Myth Alert

, Beneath the byline of John L. Boucher, a gruff, locally prominent journalist known to take pains not to embroider or exaggerate his reporting.

Boucher’s article carried the headline:

“Bra-burners blitz boardwalk.”

The article mentioned a burn barrel that demonstrators had dubbed the “Freedom Trash Can,” stating:

“As the bras, girdles, falsies, curlers, and copies of popular women’s magazines burned in the ‘Freedom Trash Can,’ the demonstration reached the pinnacle of ridicule when the participants paraded a small lamb wearing a gold banner worded ‘Miss America.’”

Boucher’s report was buttressed by the separate recollections of Jon Katz , a writer who in 1968 was a young reporter for the Atlantic City Press , these accounts at very least “offer fresh dimension to the bra-burning legend.

“They represent two witness accounts that bras and other items were burned, or at least smoldered, in the Freedom Trash Can.”

This evidence, I write, cannot be taken lightly, dismissed or ignored.

At the same time, I add, the accounts of Boucher and Katz “lend no support to the far more vivid and popular imagery that many bras went up in flames in flamboyant protest that September day.”

Even so, I note that “bra-burning” is an epithet not at all misapplied to the protest at Atlantic City.
