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.
95% (or better) of the stuff you have learned about law enforcement in the movies or on TV is garbage. Movies are written, directed and acted by people who have no experience or first hand knowledge of law enforcement or crime.
Regardless of the type of crime - shoplifting to running a criminal enterprise - law enforcement officers can only arrest someone if probable cause exists. If this burden of proof does not exist, no lawful arrest can be made.
