A perp walk, walking the perp, or frog march is a practice in law enforcement of parading an arrested suspect out in public before their initial appearance in court. The suspect is typically escorted from a police station to a police vehicle to the courthouse and then after the court hearing back to a vehicle, creating an opportunity for a media frenzy to take photographs and video of the event. The defendant is normally handcuffed or otherwise restrained, and is sometimes dressed in prison garb. Within the United States the perp walk is most closely associated with New York City. The practice rose in popularity in the 1980s under U.S. Attorney Rudolph Giuliani, when suspects charged with felonies were perp-walked.
