[edit] Cleanup tag

This makes not much sense to me. Where are the "searchable orfices" in the penis, testicles, and breasts? Nabla 23:42, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

• Excellent point. (by 71.28.243.246, 2005-10-04 03:07:18)

• The IRA Example seems to answer this concern. --Unsigned

• I have done some minor editing to provide some clarification and removed generalizations. Some additional details of the legal status of such searches outside the USA would be useful, but unfortunately, that is beyond my limited knowledge. As such, I've removed the cleanup tag as I think the entry is pretty straight-forward and self explanitory now. --Lendorien 02:01, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV

"Suspects and inmates can be highly creative in using their bodies to conceal contraband." This casts suspects/inmates in a suspicious light, as conniving individuals, and hints toward generalization. Also, "creative" is a highly subjective term that doesn't appear to be necessary in this context. I was thinking something more like "historically, there have been many different methods used to conceal contraband" or something along those lines. Paralysisordeath 02:07, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
