A Wisconsin superintendent is facing six counts of felony false imprisonment after allegedly confining six students to a room and ordering them to strip down to their underwear during a search for vape cartridges, FOX UP reports.

Kelly Casper, superintendent of Suring School District, allegedly directed the students into a small bathroom off the nurses office and told them to remove their clothing as she stood in the doorway, said Oconto County District Attorney Edward Burke Jr. The students were not given a option to leave or contact their parents; the only option was a search by the superintendent or by a police officer, he said.

In Wisconsin, false imprisonment is punishable by up to six years in prison and a $10,000 fine, according to the report.

Some of the parents are also pursuing a civil lawsuit claiming the students Fourth Amendment rights were violated. The amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures.
