- Scenario: You are dispatched to a domestic assault at a residence involving a male (suspect) and a female (victim). You determine there to be probable cause to arrest the suspect and transport him to jail. Both parties appear to be of Middle Eastern descent. During the arrest process, you observe the suspect to be wearing a Turban. He politely asks you to not remove it from his head. (Your department policy is to thoroughly search each arrested person who is placed in your squad, and who is entering your local jail).
- Considering your reading assignment for this module, as well as the online lecture, how would you handle this situation? How would you communicate with this person? Would you depart from your department’s policy in any way?
