prisoner’s property it will be receipted onto a Property Receipt (PD-99-163) and secured
in a property locker.

documented medical treatment record(s) will be forwarded with him/her to the receiving
facility.
C. Officers who transport a prisoner from a non-adjacent county in the State of Ohio or from
another state will ensure that the proper extradition papers have been filed. The
extradition paper(s) will be transported with the prisoner and a copy of the paper(s) will
be included in the arrest file.
D. Information regarding potential security risks presented by a prisoner will be documented
and sent to the receiving detention/holding facility with the transporting officer. This
information may include, but not limited to, escape risks, suicidal tendencies, or unusual
illness (es) of a prisoner. The arresting officer is responsible for advising the transporting
officer(s) of any specific risks presented by a prisoner and for ensuring that the proper
documentation will be forwarded to the receiving facility.
