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.
It would be investigated as any other crime.
I am curious on how this was not reported when you were at the hospital.
Probably.
yes
Since I was not there, nor did I conduct an investigation in the incident, I don't know what the probable cause was for your charge.
However, I suspect it might have something to do with your statement "and I began to follow her."
Getting angry about some perceived slight while driving, and then chasing the woman, is likely the source of your problems.

What types of clients are the worst to deal with?
I don't know what your state's laws may be in regard to this. I would hope that most departments would not hire a convicted armed robber, but that's just me.
It can be. Time away from the family, physical danger and dealing with other people's problems are just some of the downsides to the job.
I would highly recommend contacting the state attorney general's office and the BATFE for information on the related state and federal laws.
