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.

It might.  You should contact the California POST: http://www.post.ca.gov/

I have wanted to become a police officer since I was a child, however I also want to go to university, so I wanted to get a degree that would help. What degree would you recommend?

Asked by Jimmy almost 12 years ago

Contact the department you wish to work for and see if they require a degree.  I would recommend the least expensive degree possible, as they will largely be useless in law enforcement.  You can read through my prior answers for additional information on college degrees and law enforcement.

I was wondering I am 16 and pregnant. I don't think It would be safe to keep my baby at home due to money issues. Is there anyway I can move out with getting caught up with the law in Missouri. I'm wanting to move in with my boyfriend.

I'd suggest contacting a family law attorney in your state.
