DOVER, DE: "It’s a controversial bus search that’s making national headlines. Now, Delaware State University is filing a formal civil rights complaint over Georgia police stopping and searching the women’s lacrosse team bus for drugs. The Delaware State University president says the evidence is clear and compelling that both the stop and search of his student athletes heading home from their final season game were a violation of their rights.
“It almost felt like an out-of-body experience. Like did this really just occur?” coach Pamella Jenkins said.
Delaware State University has filed a formal complaint with the Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice, citing police misconduct. While the sheriff, who is Black, defends his deputies, Delaware Attorney General Kathleen Jennings has requested a full review by the Department of Justice Office of Civil Rights and the Georgia attorney general."
Coach Jenkins says concern for the mental well-being of the students and coaches that were on the bus remains paramount."
