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

men were armed and dangerous.
