Savana Redding was at the center of a U.S. Supreme Court after she was strip-searched in middle school for extra-strength ibuprofen pills. Redding maintained that her constitutional rights were violated.
At the time of the incident in 2003, Redding was a 13 year-old student of Safford Middle School in Arizona. She was searched because regulations required students to get permission before bringing any prescription-strength medication to school.CNN: Court to hear case of teen strip-searched for ibuprofen (January 16, 2009) On June 25, 2009, the Supreme Court justices ruled 8-1 that the strip search of Redding was unconstitutional but ruled that the school was protected from liability and can not be made to pay monetary damages.http://www.abcnews.go.com/Politics/SCOTUS/story?id=7782080&page=1
