After handcuffing the suspect, the officer opened the front of the suspect's pants and found a bag of cocaine taped to the suspect's body. Id. The Texarkana Court of Appeals held that the police officer, having formed a reasonable belief that the object might be a weapon, was justified in conducting a more intrusive search. Id. at 193.
