198	198	11. Strip searches do not require reasonable suspicion for prisoners of “inmate” status.
199	199	1. Rationale:
200		-11. Strip searches have been recognized by the courts for their importance in maintaining facility security; however, they have found strip searches to be highly intrusive. Because they are intrusive, the courts have consistently held that arrestees cannot be subjected to strip searches unless there is individualized or reasonable suspicion that a prisoner has contraband. Reasonable suspicion may be assumed for prisoners whose charges, criminal histories, or current probation or parole status would reasonably be assumed to create a significant risk. The court's rationale in limiting strip searches for arrestees is that persons who are not part of the criminal subculture and who are briefly in jail awaiting bond or recognizance release for minor offenses should not be required to endure the humiliation of the strip search, because they will likely be released within minutes or a very few hours and are not, therefore, a great risk to the security of the facility. The restriction on strip searches is relaxed after arrestees have exhausted their options to gain pretrial release and have become a part of the jail population.

201	201	11. Strip searches are a necessary tool in protecting jail security and safety because:
202	202	111. Prisoners are capable of hiding weapons, drugs, and other contraband on their bodies in ways that substantially reduce the likelihood that the hidden items will be found in a frisk or rub search; and
203	203	111. Strip searches add a dimension to the search which permits visual examination of the subject in a manner which, if done competently, ensures that contraband hidden on the body will be found, and in some instances, may lead to discovery of contraband hidden in body cavities.
