PUYALLUP, Ill. — KING 5 News has learned that nearly two dozen more women have come forward with complaints about videotaping at the Puyallup city jail.
Most of the women were DUI suspects who say they were forced to strip naked in a holding cell to change into jail clothes. They didn’t know they were being recorded on a monitor that could be seen by mostly male jailers.
“We’ve got dozens of other people calling who had similar experiences in Puyallup. We’re sorting through them right now,” said Seattle Attorney James Egan.
In August, Egan’s law firm and the The Connelly Law Offices in Tacoma filed suit on behalf of 10 females and one man who say their privacy was invaded by the videotaping at the jail.
