Didn't that actually happen a few years ago? Not exactly that, but something similar, a little while before that episode aired.

Yup - fast food place, manager got a call and was told to have a girl strip and search her, hold her until the police came. And, of course, they never did.

Which is why it would be better for everyone to just send donations to mine & Clovis' cult. Worried about the Forces of Darkness? Join us! We have a non-compete with most of them! (Plus we like cupcakes and shiny things, and need more money to spend on them.) Your donation guarantees protected status in the upcoming zombie wars, why wait?

It happened a bunch of times, IIRC, and was really traumatic for the people involved. (Not unlike how I might imagine the Stanford experiment people felt, though hopefully to a lesser degree.)
