Last Answer on October 29, 2014

Are there procedures that police officers use that are wrong according to their training (not "textbook" perfect) but are still used because they are more convenient and/or make more sense?

Asked by Jes almost 12 years ago

I was in college and was not happy in the aerospace engineering program I was in. I explored the possibility of police work, and after riding a few shifts with officers, I decided to go into law enforcement.
