How do you prefer to “fat” people in a politically correct way in a police report?
Question by Miguel Alvarez: How do you prefer to “fat” people in a politically correct way in a police report?
Example, if someone experiences a break in and they give you a description and they say it was a skinny person, you refer the suspect as a person with a “slender” build. If someone was a white person, you refer to them as “caucasion”. What do you refer to a “fat” person as? You can’t put in your report that the prime suspect is a “fat” person, so what is the usual word or phrase used?

Husky
Large?
i think you mean “refer to” if he was chunky you would call him husky, if he was really fat you’d probably just say large, and if youre wondering how this gargantuan managed to break in and actually get away hes probably morbidly obese, or just obese if you dont want to hurt his feelings
Curvy or large? I have seen on tv police programmes that refer to people (wanted people) as ‘fat build’ though?
Thick build
Over weight
“Skinny” is “slender build”
“Regular” is “Medium build”
“Fat” is “Heavy build”
Calling a fat person a big person does not offend them.
They can call me Fat.
It is the truth.
Political correctness is a huge, truth-eating cancer in our society.
Fat.
Gravity Enhanced?
depends on the size of the suspect.A police report would state 200 to 250 lbs, 300 to 350 lbs. That is how they are referred as. But a person that doesn’t know any better they would refer them as fat, big, large. really big.
