[pat down]

A firsk search of a "suspect" by Police, or of a "convict"

by a Correctional Officer.

Above definition was found under a tentative definition of Pat down: Would it, more plausibly, read "frisk search" rather than "firsk search?"

The word "convict" has been defined in law, adequately.
But, it's more challenging to define the word,
"suspect."
