Great.....so a police officer can abuse a citizen most horrifically and the city can pay and they get to keep their jobs.

I see major procedure changes at this hospital along with privileges being yanked from several doctors assuming they manage to get past the medical review board.
They had a warrant, so no lack of consent.
Warrant means nothing to medical personnel. A nurse could have stopped the procedure just as the doctor at the first ER did. I have a family member that runs an OR - showed the story to her and she laughed. You can bring any warrant you want into her OR, without patient consent they aren't touching the patient.
Not sure about other states. Texas can require assistance in executing a search warrant.
Just checked to make sure, not at a private hospital. Also a nurse or doctor practicing in Texas at a public hospital can refuse to comply based on the Hippocratic oath...first, do no harm. This info was confirmed with a local hospitals legal council.
ETA: in short, a warrant can compel a public hospital to comply but the hospital can not compel its employees to comply.
I was wrong...don't even need a warrant. Obv, we're teetering on the cutting edge of case law, so it is an extreme example. That said... The CCP could be applied (though poorly IMO) in a way to avoid the non-compliance of medical personnel.

Art. 2.14. MAY SUMMON AID. Whenever a peace officer meets with resistance in discharging any duty imposed upon him by law, he shall summon a sufficient number of citizens of his county to overcome the resistance; and all persons summoned are bound to obey.

Acts 1965, 59th Leg., vol. 2, p. 317, ch. 722.

Art. 2.15. PERSON REFUSING TO AID. The peace officer who has summoned any person to assist him in performing any duty shall report such person, if he refuse to obey, to the proper district or county attorney, in order that he may be prosecuted for the offense.

As a LEO, I hope you are not okay with forcing people including medical professionals to violate other people against their own conscience and good sense.

As far as the dept getting sued, ultimately it's not their money - it's yours. When they run out, they just come take more of yours.

That is what needs to change. If a LEO violates the highest law of our land and deprives a citizen of his natural rights enumerated under our constitution there needs to very little to no shielding for them. It is better that they never again are able to find drugs hidden within someone than to deprive a citizen of his God given right to live free of sexual assault. This crew acted unconscionably, the whole lot from the LEO to the dog handler to the judge to the doctors. We need to have serious consequences for aberrations like this.

Very difficult to accomplish because gov agencies are not P&L centers.

But the Police departments do have budgets and insurance and the LEO's conducting this assault under color of law have homes and cars and jobs. I am sure some of those things are important to someone.

Nice knowing our the fourth amendment of our constitution is going to be used as toilet paper.

Wow...just wow. Someone needs to be fired. Someone needs to pay big time. Contempt of cop should not be grounds for sexual assault under color of law. From what I understand the ill gotten warrant (what type of judge signs off on that invasive of a search based on a hunch) was not valid in the county nor at the time of the colonoscopy. Unless more serious evidence of RS comes up I will say this looks like a violent assault on a citizen by a LEO assisted by corrupt medical professionals.

What will we have next? Cop suspects drugs so they shoot the individual and then perform a autopsy to confirm their suspicions. (Hyperbole-- I hope).
