Current BRPD policy states that searches will be conducted by officers of the same gender as the suspect/arrestee whenever possible.
1. If a search must be conducted by an officer of the opposite sex, then two officers must be present.
2. The offense report will reflect the names of both officers, which officer did the actual search, and any significant events that transpired.
