Gant -- A Significant Supreme Court Case on SIA of a Vehicle Police are authorized to search the passenger compartment of a vehicle incident to arrest an occupant or recent occupant only when the arrestee is unsecured and within reaching distance of the passenger compartment at the time of the search. Additionally, officers may search the passenger compartment following the arrest of a recent occupant when it is reasonable to believe that evidence relevant to the crime of arrest might be found in the vehicle. The full text of this record is located in the Core Database under document #604776. Domestic Violence and the Reluctant Victim Many police officers ask the question, "Why should I bother to arrest if the victim is going to go back to him anyway?" This type of thinking could lead one to believe that the victim is asking to be abused, however nothing could be further from the truth. We must ensure that officers understand that their work is not in vain when it comes to investigating and arresting domestic abusers. The reasons that women stay with abusive partners are complex and multifaceted, and a number of theories attempt to explain the dynamics involved in battering. The full text of this record is located in the Core Database under document #604774.
