The court also did not exempt the school district itself from civil liability. Only the individual employees, so the girl's family can still sue the district. IMO that doesn't go far enough. Anyone ordering or performing the stripping and ogling of a young girl over a freaking OTC pill should be liable for damages resulting from criminal and sexual misconduct. In no case should a school district be conducting strip searches. If you feel it absolutely necessary, call the cops.
as an aside, I find it not terribly surprising that Clarence "Coke Can" Thomas is totally fine with making little girls strip for grownups.
