Study Notes

Handcuffing Policies

  • Officers should refrain from handcuffing individuals aged 12 or younger, considering the individual's age and physical condition.
  • No K-12 student will be handcuffed on school property, in school vehicles, or during school-sanctioned events, unless a custodial arrest is required for transport.
  • Exceptions to the above rules include suspects of felonies or when there is a reasonable belief that the individual may resist arrest, escape, or poses a risk to themselves or others.
  • Officers have the discretion to handcuff based on the nature of the offense, as well as the demeanor, physical ability, and size of the individual.

Custody for Status Offenses

  • Individuals taken into custody for status offenses should not be handcuffed, unless specific considerations are met.
  • All individuals, regardless of handcuffing, must be searched in accordance with OMS 104.01(12-14).

Officer's Decision-Making

  • The final decision to handcuff an individual lies with the on-scene officer.
  • Officers must clearly articulate the reasons for handcuffing any individual from the outlined vulnerable groups.
  • Any decision to handcuff must be documented in the General Occurrence (GO) report or a street check for accountability.
