III. PROCEDURES
Search and Seizure Without a Warrant
The Iowa City Police Department recognizes that "citizens have the right to be free of
unreasonable search and seizure" as afforded by the Constitution of the United States.
This Department will strive to ensure that all searches and se izures meet current legal
requirements. In recognition of this, the following guidelines are to be considered when
making a determination to search without a warrant.
A. Consent to Search:
1. Persons or property may be searched upon the consent of the person, owner or
person in control of the property or item to be searched. The person giving
consent must do so voluntarily. The officer is obligated to abide by any
constraints placed on the search by the person.
LEG-04.3
B. Exigent Circumstances:
1. An officer may search without a warrant when the public safety is endangered or
obtaining consent or a warrant is impractical
C. Moveable vehicles which may contain evidence that may be removed or destroyed
without a timely search being made:
1. A vehicle may be searched if an officer reasonably believes that it may contain
evidence of a crime, which may be destroyed or moved, and it is impractical to
obtain a warrant.
D. Stop and Frisk:
1. An individual may be frisked for weapons if an officer has a n articulable concern
for his/her safety.
E. Inventory Searches of Impounded Vehicles:
1. Inventory searches of impounded or seized vehicles may be conducted for the
purpose of documenting property contained in the vehicle. An inventory search
should not be used when the primary reason is to obtain evidence.
F. Search Incident to Arrest:
1. When an arrest is made, the officer will conduct a search of the arrested person
and the area in the immediate control of the arrested person for the purpose of
ensuring the officers' safety, preventing the person from escaping, discovering
the fruits of the crime, or discovering instruments or articles which may have
been used in the commission of a crime or constitute evidence of an offense.
This search must be contemporaneous in place and time.
G. Plain View:
1. Officers may visually search items or property that is in plain view, provided that
the officer has the right to be in the position from which the view was made.
H. Crime Scene Search:
1. Depending on the location of a crime scene, consent or a warrant may be
required prior to a search. (i.e. public v. private property)
I. Officers may search persons on premises during the execution of a search warrant
in order to protect their safety, prevent disposal or concealment of proper ty subject
to the warrant or to remove any items that could be used to effect an escape or
resist arrest.
J. Officers may conduct warrantless searches in other situations under applicable case
law. (See training documentation)
Search and Seizure Pursuant to Warrant
A. Legal Basis for Obtaining a Search Warrant
1. In order to obtain a search warrant, an officer must be able to show probable
cause to believe that specific evidence, contraband, or instrumentalities/fruits of a
crime may be found at a particular location.
LEG-04.4
2. Specific facts establishing probable cause must be set forth with clarity and
specificity. Officers shall not rely solely upon personal opinion or unauthenticated
third party information or hearsay. Such facts may be based on the personal
observation or knowledge of the officer, or information from a reliable source.
3. When informants are used, particularly confidential informants, the reliability of
the informant and the information provided should be specified. Whenever
possible, officers should corroborate informant information.
B. Affidavit Preparation
1. An affidavit supporting the application for a search warrant shall be prepared on
the appropriate form in accordance with department policy. Because the
accuracy of the affidavit is vital to the validity of the search warrant, officers shall
ensure that the following information is clearly and completely specified:
(a) Offense: The offense shall be described with reference to the criminal
statute number where possible.
(b) Place or Thing to Be Searched: The place or thing to be searched shall be
clearly and specifically described. Where private premises are to be
searched, references should include:
(1) Street number and apartment number if appropriate;
(2) Physical description of the premises;
(3) Legal description of the premises;
(4) Name of owner or occupant;
(5) Geographical location of the property;
(6) Map coordinates or distances from given reference points;
(7) Photographs, satellite photographs, maps, or diagrams that aid in
specifically identifying the location to be searched.
(c) Scope of the Search: Only those things described in the search warrant can
be seized. Therefore, the affidavit should specify, and the officer should
ensure that the warrant includes the following:
(1) All areas that the officers desire to search shall be designated. In
instances where officers wish to conduct a complete search of a home
and its surroundings, the affidavit should specify a search of the
premise and it’s “curtilage,” and should identify any outbuildings such
as garages, tool sheds or other detached buildings, where approp riate.
(2) Motor vehicles known to be on the premises that may be searched should
be specified.
(3) Searches (other than frisks for weapons) of specific persons on the
premises shall be referenced in the affidavit by name if possible.
LEG-04.5
(4) The specific items to be seized shall be detailed. Where the item may be
dismantled (e.g., firearms) the warrant should authorize the search and
seizure of parts or components of that item.
(5) Officers anticipating search of computers and related high-technology
equipment should consult a forensic examiner or other qualified source
for appropriate language to use in the affidavit and procedures for
seizure of hardware, software, and electronic media.
(d) Time and Method of Search: A valid search warrant may be served at any
time of the day or night, as operationally required, within 10 days from the
time of issuance.
(1) Officers may request a “no knock” provision in the warrant when they
have reason to believe that adherence to the knock and announce rule
would endanger their safety or the safety of others, would enable a
wanted person to escape, or would likely result in the destruction of
evidence before entry can be made.
2. All affidavits must be reviewed and approved by a supervisor PRIOR to
presentation to a magistrate or other judicial official authorized to issue search
warrants.
3. PRIOR to obtaining a signed search warrant, a Search Warrant Control Review
Form shall be completed with the required signatures obtained (the second
signature must be from a lieutenant or higher. This would include a sergeant
appointed as an Acting Watch Commander) (see Appendix I). The accompanying
Search Warrant Checklist should be followed throughout the warrant process.
Other than for the physical search of a structure, a supervisor may waive the
requirements of the Search Warrant Checklist (I.e. obtaining blood for an OWI
investigation, obtaining shoes from a prisoner at the jail, etc.) Justification for the
supervisor’s waiver must be documented in writing prior to the service of the
warrant on Appendix I.
4. As all search warrants have potential for violence, the officer making application
will, at a minimum and prior to the execution of the warrant:
(a) Check the criminal history of any person known to reside or frequent the
location i.e. associates.
(b) Check the address for any history of violence.
(c) Prior serving the warrant, the officer making application will call the current
agency responsible for providing deconfliction services.
If, after completing this assessment, the officer making application discovers
information that may make this a high risk warrant service, the officer will make
the approving supervisor aware of the information at which point they will follow
Search and Seizure Pursuant to Warrant -section G (pg. 9) to make a final
determination on whether or not it meets the high risk criteria.
LEG-04.6
C. Supervisory Review of Issued Search Warrant Prior To Execution
1. Prior to any attempt at service, a supervisor should review issued search
warrants to ensure that they include all pertinent information set forth in the
affidavit completely and accurately, and that the warrant has been properly
signed by a magistrate or other authorized judicial official. Officers sh all not
attempt to serve any search warrant that is known to contain substantive or
administrative errors.
2. When an outside agency requests Iowa City Police assistance with the execution
of a search warrant in Iowa City, a supervisor will at a minimum familiarize
themselves with the address being searched and confirm the accuracy of the
location.
D. Execution of the Search Warrant
1. 10-Day Time Limit: Search warrants must be executed within 10 days from the
time of issuance. Any warrant not executed within this time limit is void and must
be returned unserved to the magistrate or clerk of court. In the event that the
return of an unserved warrant will compromise an active investigation, the
County Attorney should be consulted regarding the time and man ner of the
return.
2. Pre-Surveillance: For narcotics / drug or weapon related search warrants, it is
recommended that surveillance be maintained on the target location for a
minimum of 30 minutes.
3. Pre-Search Briefing: Prior to the execution of a search warrant, the supervisor in
charge of the search should ensure that a pre-search briefing is conducted to
inform assisting officers of the following:
(a) The supervisor in charge of the search;
(b) Verification of the specific location to be searched;
(c) The layout of the premises and any known or anticipated hazards that may
exist;
(d) The manner of approach and entry into the premises;
(e) The assignment of assisting officers as necessary to:
(1) Exterior containment of the premises;
(2) Guard and/or transport any persons arrested;
(3) Search designated areas;
(4) Restrict access at entrances; and
(5) Collect and handle evidence;
(6) Interviews of any persons present;
LEG-04.7
(f) The communications procedures to be used.
(g) Historical data of suspects;
(h) Update from surveillance Officer on scene;
(i) Written Safety Plan – copies to all officers participating
(see Appendix II)
(k) Staging area discussion
4 Supervisor Presence Required: The supervisor in charge must be physically
present on all search warrant executions. Once it has been determined that the
scene is secure, the supervisor may designate an officer to complete the search
warrant process. Upon conclusion of the search, the supervisor in charge or
designee is responsible for ensuring that all evidence is prope rly documented
and secured, that the premises is left in a secure manner, and that all paperwork
and reports are submitted as required.
5 Media or Other Third Party Participation: Police officers shall not take members
of the news media or other third parties into private premises during the
execution of a search warrant, unless the presence of the third party is necessary
in aid of the warrant’s execution. Police authority to enter private premises
pursuant to a search warrant does not automatically extend to third parties.
Participation by a third party must be directly related to the authorized objective
and scope of the search warrant. This restriction shall not be construed to
prevent the entry of third parties into private premises pursuant to voluntary
consent or other legal authority.
6 Photographing Premises: Photographs should be taken of the premises both
before and after the search is conducted for the purpose of documenting the
property in its original condition and the condition in which it was left by officers
after the search. All photographs and videos taken at a search warrant are
evidence and will be placed in evidence or on the video storage system at the
conclusion of the search warrant.
7 Giving of Notice: The officer executing a search warrant must, before entering
the premises, give appropriate notice of his/her identity and purpose to the
person to be searched or the person in apparent control of the premises to be
searched. If it is unclear whether anyone is presen t at the location to be
searched, the officer must give notice in a manner likely to be heard by anyone
present. The giving of notice may be waived ONLY if specifically authorized in
the warrant.
8 Serving the Warrant: Before undertaking any search, the officer must leave a
copy of the warrant with the person to be searched or the person in apparent
control of the premises or vehicle to be searched. Where there is a reasonable
belief that the person only speaks a language other than English, an officer or
other individual fluent in that language should be summoned to the scene if
LEG-04.8
available and the exigency of the situation permits. If no one in apparent and
responsible control is occupying the premises or vehicle, the officer must leave a
copy of the warrant affixed to the premises or vehicle.
9 Detention of Persons Present: An officer executing a search warrant for
premises not generally open to the public, or of a vehicle other than a common
carrier, may detain any person present for such time as is reasonably necessary
to execute the search warrant. If the items listed in the search warrant are not
found on the premises or vehicle, the officer may then search any person present
at the time of the officer’s entry for the property specifically described in the
search warrant.
10 Frisk of Persons Present: If the officer reasonably believes that his/her safety or
the safety of others present so requires, he/she may search for any dangerous
weapons by externally patting the clothing of those person s present. If the officer
feels an object which he/she believes is a dangerous weapon, he/she may take
possession of that object.
11 Scope of the Search: The scope of the search may be only such as is authorized
by the warrant and is reasonably necessary t o discover the items specified
therein. Upon discovery of the items specified, the officer must take possession
or custody of them. If in the course of the search the officer inadvertently
discovers items not specified in the warrant which are subject to seizure under
State or City Code, he/she may also take possession of the items so discovered.
12 Inventory of Items Seized: The officer executing the search warrant must
prepare and sign an inventory of all items seized. If the items are seized from a
person, then a copy must be given to that person. If the items are seized from a
place or vehicle, a copy must be given to the owner or person in control of the
premises or vehicle. If no person is present, the copy will be left in the premises
or vehicle from which the items were seized.
13 Concluding the Search: Officers will conduct the search in a manner so as to
leave the premises or vehicle in the same general condition as originally found.
All evidence will be handled in accordance with General Order 00-10 / SER-06.
The officer in charge of collecting evidence will complete all reports and property
control forms, and will place the evidence in secure storage prior to ending
his/her tour of duty.
14 Supervisor Responsibility: Upon conclusion of the operation, the approving
supervisor shall forward the original Written Safety Plan, Threat Assessment and
Search Warrant Control Review form to the Records Section. Records will
forward those documents to the Sergeant of Investigations where it shall be
maintained in a secure location separate from the investigative case file.
E. Return of the Search Warrant
1. Officers shall observe statutory and administrative requirements regarding return
on the search warrant to include providing an inventory of seized property to the
LEG-04.9
proper person for property taken, and return of the warrant and delivery of the
property inventory to the appropriate judicial authority within specified time limits.
F. Liaison with the County Attorney
1. Officers seeking search warrants in unusual situations or where the seriousness,
nature or legal complexity of the case so dictates, should review the case with
the County Attorney’s Office prior to seeking a search warrant.
G. High-Risk Warrant Service Operations
1. Prior to the execution of a search warrant, the need for tactical support will be
determined. In determining whether or not service of the warrant constitutes a
high-risk operation under the provisions of this policy, the supervisor in charge
must consider several factors:
(a) The characteristics and location of the target premises and the number of
persons likely to be present.
(b) The anticipated need for pre-planned forcible or dynamic tactical entry into
the premises.
(c) Facts and information known or foreseen by officers that indicate an
unusually high potential for violence or physical danger exists. The danger
may originate from persons who are believed to be armed or who have a
past history of violence or from a danger within the environment to be
entered (i.e. explosives, volatile or hazardous chemicals, barriers or
fortification, vicious animals, etc.).
(d) The number of personnel and resources required to safely and adequately
conduct the operation and accomplish the intended objective.
2. Supervisors should make a threat-assessment to determine whether the
intended warrant service activity requires tactical support. If the assessment
indicates a need for tactical support, the supervisor shall consult with the SRT
Commander and the Commander of Field Operatio ns, who will make the final
determination.
3. Authorization for high-risk warrant service operations must be given by the
Commander of Field Operations or designee.
4. High-risk warrant service operations must be preceded with a written plan to
include, at a minimum, the following:
(a) The procurement of any special equipment or resources needed;
(b) The designation of a radio talk group to be used and any special
communications procedures to be followed;
LEG-04.10
(c) The specific strategy for approaching, entering, securing and leaving the
target premises. This strategy should include the layout of the premises (if
known), and the identification of any known or anticipated hazards that may
exist.
(d) The specific responsibilities of each officer present during the operation,
including provisions for the handling and transport of persons arrested;
(e) The coordination of any special support needed from outside agencies
regarding the foreseen or anticipated need for resources such as medical or
firefighting personnel, animal control units, etc.;
(f) All requirements regarding deconfliction are met per SOG 14 -02.
5. Upon conclusion of the operation, the supervisor designated as having
responsibility for the control and coordination of operation must:
(a) Conduct a debriefing and/or critique of the operation with key participating
personnel. The debriefing should be conducted as soon as practical
following the operation;
(b) Review the associated documentation, paperwork, and any required reports
(e.g., use of force) to insure that current legal requirements and
departmental policy have been met;
(c) Insure that all evidence has been properly documented and placed in secure
custody;
(d) Ensure the preparation of an SRT report, if applicable. The SRT report must
include a summary of the result of the operation and any recommendations
arising from the debriefing.
