🚨 MICHIGAN: WOMAN DEMANDS $250,000 AFTER REMOVING HIJAB DURING BOOKING
A Michigan woman, Helina Bowe, says she was “traumatized” after Ferndale Police required her to remove her hijab during booking following a traffic stop.
"I'm traumatized and feeling numb and detached."
"I'm Muslim, so it's very important that I wear hijab. It's like a form of worship for me, like I'm constantly in worship to my creator."
But here’s the rest of the story:
• Police say she was stopped on 8 Mile for a fraudulent license plate
• She told officers she had a taser, but a stun gun (illegal in MI) was found in the vehicle
• She was arrested, taken in, and standard booking procedures followed
Now she wants $250,000, claiming her rights were violated by being photographed without her head covering.
