Lawsuit Alleges Police 'Sexual Humiliation' in 'Torture Warehouse'

A grandmother is suing the Baton Rouge Police Department (BRPD) after allegedly being "sexually humiliated" inside a "torture warehouse" following a traffic stop. The department is facing multiple lawsuits and a civil rights investigation into the facility, known as the "Brave Cave." Four officers are facing criminal charges related to the investigation. The grandmother claims she was subjected to unnecessary strip and body cavity searches, while another plaintiff alleges he was beaten severely. The facility has been permanently closed, and the department's Street Crimes Unit has been disbanded. The FBI is conducting an independent review of the complaints.
