Oh.

Well, this will make it more difficult to search students for things which could be immediately dangerous to the entire school.

I wonder if the verdict would have been different if they had actually found pills.

13 year old girls do not use their vaginas as spare pockets. Additionally, things that can be immediately dangerous to an entire school tends to be a bit too awkward to put in a vagina, especially an immature 13-year old's vagina.

A bra, however, can be a very easy place to hide things ( ... )

I'm so sorry that happened to you, that's terrible.

khava is right, though. This decision has a lot to do with the nature of the contraband and how the school went about it. In a situation like yours, I don't see why they couldn't get a warrant.

So it's illegal but the school is immune from any real liability. Great.

Sounds like they shot it back to the lower court to determine liability, so it's not over yet.

The big deal here is that they established the law, so schools won't do this again. (Or if they do, the next people will get damages.)
