LAPORTE — A body scanner is being credited with the discovery of scissors in the anal cavity of an arrestee being booked into the LaPorte County jail Wednesday, said county police Capt. Derek J. Allen.

The arrestee, whose name and sex were not released, initially refused, but then took part in the required SecurPASS X-ray body scan, police said.
"While reviewing the scan image, Lt. Jeff Holt, assistant jail commander of operations, observed what appeared to be a foreign object inside the anal cavity of the arrestee," Allen said. "The arrestee was escorted from the scanner room to a nearby area for an additional search."

A second scan revealed the object had moved position and was able to be confirmed as scissors, according to police.
"A short time later, the scissors were removed from the arrestee without incident," Allen said.
Scissors were full sized 8 inches long.

Imagine if the scan had been an MRI. No telling where those scissors might have ended up.

Were they Fiskars? The reason I'm asking is because if they are, they are quite durable and rust resistant but will eventually rust. For that reason, I'm glad they were removed from the person's system.

News you can use.

I am not sure, but it would seem that it might be a tiny bit dangerous to do this.

If you click on the photo through to the full size, you can just make out the Fiskar's logo on the scissor.

Last night I kept thinking about the poor guy/gal who drew the short straw and had to do the removal. Talk about earning your pay.🫣

There are people would have enjoyed that, LJ.

I guess the person’s reasoning was that, once in jail, he/she(we still don’t know the gender, although I would put money on male) might see things that would have to be cut out. Like the cellmate’s heart.
