Handcuffing Protocol
- The Department’s policy is to handcuff all prisoners with hands behind their back, when practical.
1- If it is safer for the MOS and the subject, the MOS may front-cuff the subject initially, and then rear-
cuff as soon as it is practical and safety allows.
2- If MOS are having difficulty rear-cuffing a subject (i.e., injury to prisoner, size of prisoner, prisoner resisting arrest, etc.), two sets of handcuffs linked together, may be utilized. In addition, Department issued leg restraints or Velcro straps to immobilize the legs of a subject may be used as an effective tactic to gain control, limit the subject’s ability to flee or harm other individuals, and reduce or eliminate the necessity to use force; Utilizing ____ should only be used as a form of temporary restraint and should be transitioned to one set of handcuffs when it is safe and practical to do so. If available, Department issued alternative restraining devices should be used to restrain, or further restrain, subjects whose actions may cause injury to themselves or others.
Restraint of Pregnant Prisoners
- When a UMOS believes a prisoner is pregnant, the UMOS will initially rear cuff the prisoner, ABSENT EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES (e.g., medical emergencies, visibly pregnant prisoner who may be difficult to
rear cuff and who poses no immediate threat, etc.), and notify their immediate supervisor.
- The immediate supervisor will then determine if a less restrictive method of restraint is appropriate and
tactically sound - the immediate supervisor should consider the totality of the circumstances.
1- Less restrictive methods may include front handcuffing, or handcuffing one hand to a stationary post.
2- If less restrictive methods are not appropriate, the immediate supervisor may determine that a more
appropriate method of restraint is warranted.
- Prisoner Security Survey*
- To promote safety for MOS and improve prisoner security, a prisoner security survey will be conducted annually during the LAST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER in all Department facilities where prisoners are processed
