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.

I got DQ for the Highway Patrol because I threatened my girlfriends ex. Will this follow me if I apply to other agencies?

Asked by Tony Guzman over 12 years ago

Yes.

(continued) Again I have a lot of respect for police officers and I know its both physical and very mental too. I just want to know what you think. Also if I go to a top-rate university how could I use that to become a police officer?

Asked by Phillip over 12 years ago

You can spend a lot of money at a "top rate" university, but it won't help you become a police officer any more than going to a regular state university.  It will help you get deeper in debt, though.

If your desire is to go to a college, please do so.  If your desire is to be a police officer, consider entering military service, getting some life experience and a skill.  Read through my prior answers on this above.

Best of luck.

Blue Sheep dog, I was charged for a crime I didn't commit. I was 16/17 when I was charged for sexual assault on a minor, after a few court visits right before the big one she came clean and said she lied is this on my Criminal record?

Asked by Big T over 12 years ago

Possibly.  You likely can get this sealed, but you should contact a local attorney.

Hi my name is susana and I have a question about abuse. My best friend since we were kids is being abused daily and she has 4 kids. She does not have any place to go and mu house is to small. She has tried to leave but he threatened to kill her

Asked by susana about 12 years ago

If she is unwilling to contact local police for assistance, she can call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at (800) 799-7233 for confidential assistance.

Another question is, can I report license number if I see somebody texting?

Also, when a person is driving in a poor manner (e.g. speeding and moving from lane to lane with no care of those around him/her).

Asked by Irene Judith Hernandez almost 12 years ago

You can call. Please don't cause an accident by calling while driving to report someone else on their phone while driving.

I have some tickets in Tennessee. They are for drving without a license. I now live in Indiana im a single mom who goes to school and works full ime. I plan on joining the military. How can i get anything done and be a mom without a license?

Asked by Amber Marsh about 12 years ago

Public transportation. You created the problem, now you must live with the consequences.

can i go to go if they call me in as a missing person since im 18

Asked by maria over 12 years ago

Most 18 year olds are considered an adult.  You can still be reported as a missing person.

If you want to avoid problems, you should act like an adult and tell your parents that you are fine, but you have moved out.

If you fall into a variety of special categories (such as under court order), you might not be able to move out.  Chances are you would know if one of those applied to you.

If you have additional questions, you should contact an attorney or the local law enforcement agency.
