Dana Holmes was driving home from a wedding in May when she was pulled over by Marseilles PD for speeding. After failing a breathalyzer test, Holmes was taken in for DUI and transported to a LaSalle County jail. It was there that her dignity and humanity was stripped from her by four deputies.

It seemed like a routine booking until a female officer began a customary pat down. After searching her right foot, deputies violently forced Holmes to the floor and carried her by her limbs into an open cell. There, three men and the same woman ripped off all of her clothes, including her undergarments, and left her naked and exposed on the floor of the cell. Minutes later, a deputy opened the cell door and threw in some blankets and what is described as a “padded suit” by authorities. There she sat for over an hour, alone and afraid with only a blanket to hide behind.
“I was terrified…I felt helpless,” Holmes recalled to CNN. “I was scared and I lay there crying. I just prayed.”

It didn’t stop there, either. Deputies entered again to rouse Holmes from her sleep, and was then paraded around the station naked to be photographed and fingerprinted. She can be seen in the video clutching at the blanket, desperately trying to retain her modesty in front of her abusers.
“I just felt helpless and degraded,” Holmes told the Chicago Tribune. ”I was actually afraid they might come in and try to rape me.”

Authorities have had some trouble getting their stories straight after this staggering abuse. LaSalle County officers claimed that the Marseilles police officer that transported Holmes told them that she was “being mouthy and causing problems,” though the Marseilles DUI report noted nothing of the sort. The report stated that Holmes “seemed confused” about the arrest but described nothing of her temperament otherwise.
