Around here, we are not allowed to carry in a police station or jail.
Posted everywhere in case you forget!

Just last night my partner and I were turning one in at a jail we are familiar with. We always remove our weapons, even though we have been told we don't have to. So we went in with empty holsters. We recognized the officers and assumed they recognized us. At some point my partner had to go get something out of the vehicle but I stayed to watch our guy. Some of the officers stepped out side at one point, possibly for a smoke, and noticed the partner rumaging through our vehicle, so one approached him. Later, this officer said he was just going to ask if he needed help. As he came close he noticed the holster. To shorten this story some, lets just say that my partner was frisked, chewed out, and then set free when he showed his ID.
Bottom line...Even if you have been told that it is OK to carry in the jail, you never know when you will run into the person that doesn't know you or doesn't know the rules.

Scott, it is the inconsistancies that will catch up to you...one shift says one thing another is the opposite. Because someone familiar to you grants you a professional courtesy, the guy on the next shift will lock you up...

Thanks. We found out first hand. I am just going to start leaving everything in the vehicle, no matter which jail we go to. Well, I might carry OC or The taser, just incase. I am glad to be learning this stuff, now, instead of down the road when it will be harder to change the habit.

There was a time many years ago when the only way you could carry a weapon in TN was to be a Reserve Deputy. Many of us who chased jumpers and didn't write bonds were officially on some Sheriff department's reserve list. Back then, we could bring our prisoners right into the jail, carry our weapons in the courthouse and even do ride alongs with full time officers. This all came to a grinding halt when a bail bondsman was sitting down to fill out his paperwork at the booking desk and feeling an uncomfortable bulge in his rear pocket, nonchalantly reached back took out his snub nose .38 and laid it on the booking desk within reach of at least a dozen inmates. Needless to say, our access to the inside of the jail was severly restricted after that.

Would a taser being taken away from you and used against you be as temporarily incapacitating as any other weapon? What if it was used on guards etc.? I would not carry anything into the jail. Your client is secured, and once inside, has nowhere to go (sally port secured). Leave everything in your vehicle, secured properly.

At the Santa Clara County Jail at least for myself they prefer we lock our guns in the lockers behind the booking officers desk. We surrrender our skips in the main lobby so its out of the car on the street in into the main lobby for us. We go cuff our guy to the chairs then drop the guns off in the gun locker. We then have a armed DOC officer watching our backs.
