[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Question For LEOs About Frisking Practices

Posted: 9/23/2009 4:33:09 PM EDT

Question for the police officers out there. Is it considered standard practice when frisking a suspect to pass the hand between the legs in the crotch area?

Haha, too funny.

Yes if you are doing a good frisk.

I've had the displeasure of 'touching' (lifting with the back of my hand) more saggy breasts that I ever cared to - it's amazing what can be hidden in skin folds......

I got slammed to the ground a few times in the academy when the cadet searching me found the red gun that was hanging from the drawstring of my sweatpants.

yes it is, but they don't enjoy it, well about 99.997% don't enjoy it anyway.

Yes.
During a search, I normally grab the fly and shake it a few times. Better to get some

looks than have a weapon or dope in there!
