If a female officer is present at scene can a male officer throw a girl to the ground to put cuffs on her?

If more than one officer is on scene, they use a procedure referred to as "contact/cover". One is assigned as primary contact, and the other is responsible to cover. The contact officer is the one who would cuff the person, the cover person is simply there for back up, if needed. Gender has nothing to do with it.

Yes he can, just like the female officer can throw a guy down and cuff him.

Yes if she didn't do what the officer told her to do.Or if the officer felt danger to him or others around him.So the answer is don't give him any reason to body slam you.


Computer says no

Yes... actually he can do it without a female present and he can search her all on his own if he believes that she has a weapon. If there is no danger of her getting to a weapon a female would be called for the search.

No, the male officer must stand aside and allow the female officer to throw a girl to the ground to put cuffs on her.

You're not serious, are you?

Do you mean can a police officer detain and secure a Criminal/ , while a female police officer is present?

Sure, what has the gender go to do with it?
The body search would be done by the female.

Yes. Being a female is not protection against an arrest.

In my personal experience, females fight 50% more than men. They seem to have some psychology that a male police officer will not use force on them. It couldn't be less true. When I'm attacked by drunken females, I do fight, and do win. It's that simple.

A female officer does not need to present on a arrest. But I believe that a female officer has to be the one to search the girl.
