How To Process A 10-15

Phase 1: Cuffing & Securing

1. Cuff the suspect

Put the G pointer on the suspect and press Z to cuff. If the suspect is unconscious, cuff first and then patch them.

"I am going to cuff you."

2. State charges and identify yourself

Once cuffed, tell the suspect why they are under arrest and who you are.

"You are being placed under arrest for [reason]."

"I am [your name] from [your organization]."

3. Drag to the vehicle

Press X to drag. You can only drag after cuffing the suspect.

"I am going to drag you by your arm."

4. Place them in the vehicle

Release the drag, stand on the correct seat side, then press C to put the suspect in the vehicle.

"I am going to release you by your arm."

"I am going to put you inside the vehicle. Please watch your head."

Phase 2: Transport & Miranda Rights

1. Drive to DOC

Drive cleanly and follow traffic laws unless there is an active threat trying to stop you or save the 10-15.

City speed limit: 120 mph
Highway speed limit: 180 mph
Overspeed only during a real threat

2. Read Miranda rights

Read the Miranda rights while transporting the 10-15. If they do not respond, repeat it up to 3 times.

"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand the rights I have just read to you?"

"Taking your silence as a yes."

During Martial Law:

"You have the right to remain silent. The State is currently under Martial Law. There is no bail, attorney, lawyer, or other legal services available at this time. Do you understand the rights I have just read to you?"

Phase 3: Legal & Medical Requests

1. If they ask for a lawyer

Do a department radio to DOJ and ask if a lawyer is available.
If DOJ says a lawyer is available, wait for the lawyer.
If no lawyer is available, continue the normal arrest process.
Do not confiscate illegal items while the lawyer request is still pending.

2. Private lawyer request

Ask the 10-15 for the lawyer's name.
Search the name in PDA, check licenses, and take the phone number.
Ask DOJ if the person is a bar certified lawyer.
If DOJ confirms, call or message the lawyer. If not available, tell the 10-15.

3. If medical help is requested

Do a department radio to EMS and request medical assistance at DOC. If EMS does not reply, try to provide medical assistance yourself.

4. When the lawyer arrives

Stop the bodycam, save it to an SD card, hand it to the lawyer, then join the Government Discord voice channel and show your bodycam.

/me Stops recording.

/me Uploads the bodycam footage in a SD Card.

/me Hands over the SD card to [lawyer's name].

Phase 4: DOC Processing & Identification

1. Jumpsuit and cell entry

Take the 10-15 to DOC reception.
Ask for their jumpsuit size.
If they do not know or do not answer, use a freesize jumpsuit.
Stop dragging before picking up the jumpsuit.
Take them inside the cell, release dragging, search them, and confiscate items.

/me Picks Up A Freesize Jumpsuit.

2. Passport and mask check

If you have not seen the passport, uncuff the suspect and give them at least 5 seconds to remove their mask and show the passport.

"I am going to uncuff you, after that you will have 5 seconds to remove your mask and show me your passport."

3. If they do not comply

Cuff them again.
Put them on the floor.
Check their health before removing the mask.
Use G pointer > Organization > Tear off mask.
Use G pointer > Organization > Find out personal identification.

"I am going to tear off your mask."

"I am going to check your back pockets for identification."

Phase 5: Charges & Imprisonment

1. Check PDA and organization

Search the suspect in PDA and check their organization before final processing.
If they are from a legal organization, do not process a normal arrest.
Department DOJ and take the state employee to the Capitol for further proceedings.
If you are not High Command, ask High Command to do the department radio.
If they are not from a legal organization, continue normally.

2. Apply charges

Give fines based on charges.
Add wanted level based on charges.
Revoke licenses only when allowed.

3. Put them behind bars

Place the jumpsuit, say the final line, then use G pointer > Organization > Arrest.

/me Places A Freesize Jumsuit.

"I am going to put you behind the bars."

4. Optional phone and radio

You may try to take the phone and radio after completing the arrest flow.

/try Takes cell phone and radio out.

Tips & Tricks

Scene Control

If the situation is active and the 10-15 may run away, put them on the floor using G pointer > Organization > Put on floor.

"I am going to put you on the floor."

"I am going to make you stand now."
