Identify the special need for searches of prisoners and discuss prisoners' expectation of privacy
What will be an ideal response?
The special need for prisoner searches is to maintain prison and jail security, safety,
and discipline. This special need must be balanced against the invasion of prisoners'
substantially reduced expectation of privacy.
The United States Supreme Court has held that a prisoner does not have a reasonable
expectation of privacy in a jail cell, and that a search of the cell is not covered by the
Fourth Amendment. However, full-body, strip, and body-cavity searches of prisoners
are covered by the Fourth Amendment. Depending upon the need, these searches may
be conducted without probable cause or reasonable suspicion
