Answer to Question 1

o questioning. The agents must have a reasonable suspicion of the person before making a stop.
In a frisk, officers may pat down a person's outer clothing if they believe the
o person to be armed. A frisk does not necessarily follow a stop and in fact may occur only when the officer is justified in thinking that the safety of police officers
or other citizens may be endangered.
In Terry v. Ohio (1968), the U.S. Supreme Court found that officers were
o justified in conducting a stop and frisk based on a reasonable suspicion that the
men were armed and dangerous.

Answer to Question 2
