Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Contact an attorney.
There is no minimum standard. It depends on the size of the building and the needs of the agency. It may have dozens of rooms with lots of specialized spaces or just a single desk.

I believe all states require a police officer to be at least 18 years old and have a high school diploma or GED as an absolute minimum. Most departments have more requirements than that (21+, college or military) to be employed.
I would suggest getting involved in the Explorers program at your local department. It is perfect for someone who is still in high school.
Yes.
It's not frowned upon; it is illegal. Anyone that has a "he's guility of something" attitude has no business being in law enforcement.
