I recall an incident. Two suspects in a drive by. No gun. One being questioned.....the other having been searched twice on the street and again before the cuffs were removed was being booked. Ten minutes later, the one being questioned gave up the location of the gun. The fat guy being booked had a 380 between his rather enormous butt cheeks.....one chambered.....6 more in the mag. Searched three times.

I was the booking officer....first week on the assignment.

I resolved to always remind myself that no one was searched until I searched him.

Some guys just can’t do the butt check. Me? All the way up to the elbow....if necessary. Lesson learned.

Da butt is #1 location for money...drugs...guns....knives....cellphones.

Your elbow, or theirs? 'Hey can you exhale a little bit sir? I'm having trouble searching past your lungs'. :-)

I have two related stories, one was when we were arrested and handcuffed, my friend (unknown to me) ditched a pistol (4 shot derringer), unfortunately a woman had seen him toss it into the ditch and called the station, the cops hadn’t found it during the search.

I’m just glad that he didn’t have the 12” sawed off shotgun that he sometimes wore as a necklace and inside his shirt.

The other was a friend in Conroe, he was arrested and taken to the station where he was cuffed to a bench awaiting booking, he describes being incredibly distressed, why? because he still had his full sized pistol hidden in his pants and knew that at some point, all heck was going to break loose and that the police would down on him with disfavor, and would be especially angry, since they would have been made fools of.
