More to the point, what was she being strip-searched for?[^1] I can’t see any case in which even a non-invasive search for drugs at a music festival is appropriate. If there was suspicion of someone carrying a gun or a knife, maybe some searches would be appropriate. But drugs should be supported with safe and private pill testing, not with aggressive police action.

[^1]: rhetorical. The answer is drugs.
