| A disquieting and disturbing aspect of the case was that the accused had become an arrestee, detainee and confessor of a crime before he was a suspect. |
| On February 15, 2000, a Mississippi chief of police was convicted of striking an arrestee several times in the head with a baton while the victim was handcuffed in the back of a patrol car. |
| A strip search will always be unreasonable if it is carried out abusively or for the purpose of humiliating or punishing the arrestee. |
| Thus, police failure to arraign an arrestee in a reasonably prompt manner will not automatically negate a federal conviction based on a confession. |
| It turned out to be a false alarm: the arrestee was a car salesman called Félix, whose only crime was to be plump. |
| A directive was issued by HE the President detailing the steps that should be taken in accordance with the law with regard to any arrestee. |
