Re: X-rays or Strip Search?

["Busby, Bruce" <bab1303@doh.wa.gov>]

Hi all,

I was asked recently about this from a concern citizen from California 
with a relative in prison, who said that this new practice will go into 
effect this week (Dec 3...) at Folsum Prison.  Anyone have more 
information (like dose estimates, say two visits a month for a year or 
for ten years...)? 

Is this a new urban legend?
