In this classic episode, Dennis explains the importance of searching bags before transporting the subject. Recorded on 07/21/2017. Related Links: State V. Oyenusi 2006 – If you have an arrest with bags or items that may contain contraband you must search them contemporaneously with the arrest so close in time and location that they may be considered “connected units of an integrated incident and part of one single transaction.” Must not be remote in time or place. Once the property is not immediately associated with the person under arrest a search of the property cannot be done as incident to arrest (you will need consent or a warrant). Handcuffs first are OK. https://caselaw.findlaw.com/nj-superior-court-appellate-division/1380703.html?fbclid=IwAR1Ct1JjDQYqrWXFBAYCW-8xM5bsR09bKg-E77e4-KF7jC6Yi-3XVIhzYkI (https://caselaw.findlaw.com/nj-superior-court-appellate-division/1380703.html?fbclid=IwAR1Ct1JjDQYqrWXFBAYCW-8xM5bsR09bKg-E77e4-KF7jC6Yi-3XVIhzYkI) State v.
