And if someone goes in with a prosthetic leg do they take it from them ?

The federal system will allow the prostetic leg.

The federal system will allow the prostetic leg. We cannot find a state system that disallows prostetic limbs, and unless there are come county jails out there that prohibit it for some archane reason will don't see it as a problem.
The only thing they will NOT allow is a toupee.
