Luigi Mangione Stripped Naked And Subjected To "In-Depth" Search Following Arrest
Police bodycam footage of Luigi Mangione being stripped naked and then searched following his arrest last year was played this week during a pre-trial hearing, and “large blurry rectangles” had to be used in the video so that his genitalia was not on display in the courtroom. Via Insider:
Mangione’s strip search followed, five minutes after the gun was found. When asked to describe the rarely conducted search, Frye only said, “He’s naked, and they do a more thorough search.”
The search was not recorded on police body cameras, as per protocol, Frye said in court.
Before the cameras were turned off, however, they recorded Mangione disrobing, a lengthy process given that he was arrested in a nearby McDonald’s wearing multiple layers of clothing, including two heavy winter jackets, two pairs of jeans, and a pair of what police in the footage called “long johns.”
Large blurry rectangles popped up at times in the footage to obscure Mangione’s torso, hips, and legs as he removed the multiple layers of clothing.
I wonder just how large those rectangles were?
