Camden County has been hit with a class action over its policy of performing strip searches on persons held on minor offenses at the county detention center.
The suit seeks to recover damages on behalf of named plaintiff Isrel Dillard and a proposed class of detainees who were strip-searched at the Camden County Correctional Facility after being arrested on nonindictable offenses. The suit also seeks to recover on behalf of a subclass of individuals who were not only strip-searched after being arrested on minor offenses, but were strip-searched prior to an appearance before a judge with authority to release the detainee, or without being given an opportunity to post bail.
