'Two to six officers, then they brought their K9 and they started going through our stuff, sniffing our bags,' recalled one Delaware State University women's lacrosse player.
"Two to six officers, then they brought their K9 and they started going through our stuff, sniffing our bags, going through our personal hygiene," said Anderson.
"If there is something there that is questionable, please tell me now," said one of the officers in the video."Because if we find it, guess what? We're not going to be able to help you. In the state of Georgia, marijuana is still illegal." "I definitely felt it by the accusatory tone of the police officer. And while talking about narcotics, he went straight to marijuana," said Jenkins.
In the video, officers explain that while the bus was initially pulled over for a traffic stop, the officers had a right to bring out their K9s and conduct a clear air sniff, which alerted them to the luggage. Thus, prompting their search.
