COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho -

Security guards refused to allow a woman into a federal courthouse
until she removed a bra that triggered a metal detector.

Lori Plato said she and her husband, Owen Plato, were stunned when
U.S. Marshals Service employees asked her to remove her bra after
the underwire supports set off the alarm.

"I asked if I could go into the bathroom because they didn't have a
privacy screen and no women security officers were available," Plato
said Wednesday. "They said, 'No.'

"I wasn't carrying a shank in my bra. If it's so dangerous, why did
they give it back and let me put it on?"
