   Woman's DWI case complicated by nude photos on cell phone


By Miya Shay <http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/aboutus/miya_shay.html>
*ABC13 Eyewitness News*
/(6/09/05 - HOUSTON)/ — A roadside stop took an unusual turn when nude
photos entered into it. The officers were fired, but who else saw the
pictures? And will the woman they pulled over stand trial?

------------------------

And why were they going through the woman's cell phone in the first
place? Looking for more evidence of DWI? Or terrorism? Yeah, that's it,
terrorism!

I guess the point of this is to consider that your cell phone is not 
under the
same legal protections as your laptop.
