The female Texas trooper who performed a roadside cavity search on two women will be terminated, according to the Department of Public Safety. The two women from Irving are suing Trooper David Farrell, Trooper Kelley Helleson and the director of the Department of Public Safety for what they call an unconstitutional search without probable cause. DPS spokesman Tom Vinger released the following statement on Tuesday: "The Director of DPS has made a preliminary determination to terminate Kelly Helleson.

Farrell was suspended with pay effective Dec. 21 pending the outcome of an investigation into the incident. Read More |
