Greetings from the UK. Good video however, the floor was not checked. Using a batton, run it up and down the floor especially in areas like under the bed, sink/toilet. You will either bump over a hidden item/letter or sense it move. Now you may think I'm joking about prisoners hiding stuff in this manner but I'm not. I'm a ex-con. It works. I have used it. I have officers stood directly on top of camouflaged items. Like I said at the start its a good video. I don't think he missed anything. I thought he was going to miss the light but nope! He got it. Peace and Love to you all. Stay Safe.

My. That one is certainly new to me. Big thanks for the heads up. Hope life is working out well for you on the outside. Every officer that tells a prisoner heading back into the world that "I hope I never see you again" is sincere in their wishing you success in staying clean and out of prison. It's kind of bizarre how officers and ex-cons can discuss aspects of prison life that the "Muggles" that have never been inside the fence cannot really grasp. And it's best they don't know, really.

Well done. Another really good presentation. Thank you.

Thanks! My agency did not teach us cell searchers. I sadly had to come to YT to find out. Thanks again

Thank you for tuning in. It is ashame all agencies do not teach this.

Excellent demonstration of a nearly ideal cell search. Sadly, in past years at my unit, so much hooch was getting brewed, that it became de facto practise to dump and flush. My own record for a cell brewery was approx. 20 gallons. Twice found 10 gallon water coolers full of hooch, ready for distribution. Friend of mine found approx. 80 gallons in a mattress liner under the lower bunk. Our rank told us to write the case, calling it "unknown liquid smelling strongly of alcohol ". Wasn't happy about it, but we had nowhere to keep the found hooch. More recently, K2 has virtually replaced hooch, making things even worse. We DO confiscate and pass along "green, leafy substances" when found.

Great video!!! I won't get the chance to do a cell search in the academy I'm in due to the 4th of July holiday. Now I feel a little more confident. Thank you sir.

Great video Gary, I did notice a camera under the bed.

Fantastic

Great training video. As a new supervisor, great information to pass on to my officers and reinforces things that I'm doing now. A suggestion, if not done already, maybe a video on properly pat searching an inmate for contraband. Thanks for all that you do for our profession.

Very good video. Thank you!

Big 10-4 on doing a careful pat search on prisoners before starting a cell search. One dude tried to walk away from me, and duck around the D-space. I followed, not letting him get out of sight and called my sergeant to head him off from the opposite direction. When we got him stopped, and had him lift his hands, the metallic clatter of the shiv that fell out of his shorts onto the concrete between the three of us . . . Ummm . . . Piqued our interest you might say. I "politely requested" that he strip. He tried to stammer and Buck, when a second shiv dropped on the floor. My second "request" was less polite, and MIGHT have suggested long term hospitalization if anything other than total and immediate compliance with the order to strip was forthcoming. We got -7- shivs from this guy. SEARCH THEM !!

When I conduct a cell search there’s always a lot of property in the cell.

You had to repeat 5 times that you should not flush evidence :p That makes me think there are a lot of guards really bad at their job.

Well boom! I guess I did not realize it but yes I have had to investigate officers flushing what they thought was a small amount of drugs down the toilet. As I said in the video it is not the proper thing to do. I have seen officers fired for doing this So I'm trying to warn them in as nice a way as I can. Very observant of you! Boom you got me.

Have you ever seen the TV show on A&E behind bars rookie year? One new CO was recorded flushing and throwing away evidence. On top of that he was recorded manipulating inmates. I'm glad he was caught and fired.

Real good explanation guys keep up the good work

Should Add more echo....who mics up people in 2019 anyhow...

Especially if the prisoners have a cell with bricks then check for loose bricks because prisoners will carve out bricks with spoons. Also make the prisoner take off the shoes and socks because prisoners are hiding things. Its best to make the strip search a prisoner and look instead the butt.

Thank you for sharing, everything possible should be checked and thank you for adding these locations

When I was 8n jail, my very first time searching for my body again again... and in jail, they were all tight me like one kind of mental institute.... and very physically forceful even though following exactly as they have told.... Simply, never can communicate with them as reasonable.... it has to be hurtful physically.... regardless what they say or what they do.... And emotionally, such humiliated.... No matter what....
