A Florida mother who was pulled over by police for driving through a stop sign claims she was then subjected to a nightmarish strip search where her tampon was forcibly removed by an officer.

Leila Tarantino is now suing Citrus County Sheriff's Office claiming that she was strip searched with excessive force on the side of the road in front of her young children last July 17.

According to the claim, a cop waved Tarantino to drive through the posted stop sign in Beverly Hills, Florida, but was then immediately pulled over.

The mother of two says that a deputy approached her car with his gun pointed at it, ordered her out and handcuffed her with no explanation.

Tarantino asked why she being pulled over but the officer said nothing, according to the lawsuit filed on August 3, which was posted on The Blaze.

Suspected of drug-use, the suspect was then put in a police patrol car for two hours while her children, aged one and four, were left in her own car, says the lawsuit.

The suit goes on to say that five other deputies then arrived at the scene and conducted two strip searches in ?plain view? of passing motorists.

During one search a female police officer allegedly removed Tarantino?s tampon.

Tarantino's attorneys say their client was 'unreasonably searched and subjected to intrusive, substantial and unwarranted invasions of privacy.'

No drugs or other illegal contraband were found during the searches and no drug-sniffing dogs were used, says the lawsuit.

The suspect was released with a citation for violating restrictions on her driving license but was not charged with a crime.

The lawsuit is filed against the government of Citrus County, Sheriff Jeffrey Dawsey and six unnamed offers. It identifies the six officers ? five men and one woman - who conducted the searches as John and Jane Doe.

Tarantino?s attorneys have demanded a jury trial where they want to have the defendants charged with battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Tarantino is seeking monetary damages to be determined in trial by the jury as well as her attorney?s fees.

[THE KOD]

Leila Tarantino has a long track record of breaking the law. She?s been arrested multiple times for DUI, domestic battery, driving with a suspended licence, violating her probation. She is a habitual offender, which the cops would have immediately found out when they ran her name. She has no right to play the mother card because she?s clearly an awful mother in the first place. Put this drunk on blast for trying to screw the taxpayers of Citrus County.
