Basic Deputy United States Marshal Integrated (BDUSMI) 2402 Exam 5 Practice

Proper handover and custody documentation when a detainee arrives at a facility is being tested. On arrival, custody should be transferred to the facility’s staff, the detainee’s identity must be verified with multiple identifiers, and the handover should be logged with the time and the officers involved. Then the intake must be documented, updating custody records to reflect the new status, location, and any special notes such as medical or security flags. This sequence establishes a clear, auditable chain of custody, holds the correct personnel accountable, and supports safety and proper recordkeeping. Other options miss essential steps: merely notifying family members doesn’t establish custody control or document the intake; leaving custody records unmodified fails to reflect the new status and location; and focusing on creating or closing case profiles without the immediate intake, verification, and logging steps doesn’t secure proper handover.
