You also have a right to an attorney, unfortunately most people aren\u2019t aware of their rights and often don\u2019t know how to proceed after being arrested.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Police actions during arrest and booking<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re stopped by the police, you may be patted down so they can check for any weapons. If you\u2019re arrested, you will be searched more thoroughly to ensure there aren\u2019t any weapons, stolen items, illegal items, evidence of crime, contraband, etc. They will also take possession of your vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>All your possessions on you at the time of arrest will be taken. The police take inventory and ask you to sign on the document.<\/p>\n<p>Once arrested, you will be required to give basic information like your name, address, date of birth, fingerprints, and a picture of you.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2037\" src=\"https:\/\/delaughterbailbonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/An-investigation-with-the-defendant.-.jpg\" alt=\"An investigation with the defendant.\" width=\"602\" height=\"401\" srcset=\"https:\/\/delaughterbailbonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/An-investigation-with-the-defendant.-.jpg 602w, https:\/\/delaughterbailbonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/An-investigation-with-the-defendant.--300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 602px) 100vw, 602px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>What to do once you\u2019ve been arrested<\/h2>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve been arrested and are taken away by the police, you\u2019ll be allowed a couple of phone calls.
