Christine Von Der Haar has heard President Barack Obama and national security officials insist the U.S. government isn’t spying on ordinary citizens.

The Indiana University faculty member doesn’t believe them. Not after what happened to her at the Indianapolis airport.

Von Der Haar says in a federal lawsuit that she was illegally detained by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents in 2012 at Indianapolis International Airport. The lawsuit says the detention occurred after government agents intercepted and read emails she had exchanged with a friend from Greece before he came to visit her in Indiana.
