The problem as I see it, it gives them a lot more leeway to use a strip-search as an excessive punitive measure for any reason they feel like no matter what the person is suspected of.

What kind of safety threat would a strip search find that a regular pat-down couldn't find? How much danger could a non-violent suspect really pose?Flagg wrote:The problem isn't the strip searches it's what people are being booked into county for. But they aren't going to book you into a facility without strip searching you for basic security concerns. That's the bottom line.
If someone can't live comfortably and without debt making $500k a year, they're terrible at managing their own finances.
It's purpose it to dehumanize and humiliate the people being booked. Going through a sensitive metal detector should be adequate enough to find most dangerous things and a drug-sniffing dog should get the rest of the contraband.Zod wrote:What kind of safety threat would a strip search find that a regular pat-down couldn't find?

Oh boo hoo. Cry me a freaking river.But more than a few of the New York-based financial executives who would have their pay limited are men (and they are almost invariably men) whose identities are entwined with living a certain way in a certain neighborhood west of Third Avenue: a life of private schools, summer houses and charity galas that only a seven-figure income can stretch to cover.

First time non-violent offenders are going to be extorted into hiding stuff? Really?Flagg wrote:Umm, you can hid all sorts of things up your ass, including knives, drugs, hell, a small gun. And a non-violent suspect may be extorted to hide stuff, or may be a violent criminal who is just being booked for a non-violent offense. You can also hide things by tying a string abound your nutsack, all sorts of shit. These people are fucking ingenious when it comes to hiding things in and around their assholes.

Those are only marginally good at detecting something carried on a person not in a person.Aaron wrote:Get some of those TSA body scanners.
You could always just accept the fact that it's impossible to completely foolproof security and that some contraband will inevitably get through no matter how invasive you make your searches.Flagg wrote:Those are only marginally good at detecting something carried on a person not in a person.Aaron wrote:Get some of those TSA body scanners.
