Fortunately, an official apology was extended and the warden has ensured that women can wear any kind of bra they like under their clothes. Truly a victory for women's lib, and only 40 years late. But seriously, if a woman is wearing a suit jacket over her blouse, how can they possibly consider it indecent? She's got two layers of clothes over her boobs. If her nipples are still visible through a suit jacket I don't think a bra is going to make the difference. Note: they don't require men to wear jockstraps under their shorts under their pants or t-shirts under their shirts under their suit jackets to meet this 3-layer minimum imposed on women.
Attorney Brittney Horstman was attempting to meet with a client at the Miami Federal Detention Center on June 4 when her underwire bra triggered the dreaded beeping of a metal detector. Though she reminded security guards of a memo from the Florida Public Defender's Office that allowed female attorneys to enter with underwire, Horstman was still turned away.
Instead of leaving defeated, the former public defender decided to take matters into her own hands, shedding her bra in the restroom and returning to the security checkpoint in her blouse and suit. This time she was barred for her bralessness, which guards said violated the dress code's mandate that visitors not dress in a way that is "provocative [or] enticing."
