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.

Hi, please my question is how does the responsibilities of the FBI influence the economy? Thank you.

Asked by Emmanuel over 12 years ago

I imagine the FBI has only a slight impact on the US economy.  It sounds like you have an interesting topic for research though.

If I were to get into a confrontation with someone and the police were called. Am I allowed to ask for another police officer to take control of the scene. If the original one had history with the person I got into the confrontation with?

Asked by Machines over 12 years ago

No.  If you believe the officer handles the incident in an improper manner, you can request to speak to his/her supervisor.

Are there procedures in place that make it so if an officer is in trouble, they can say it on the radio without being blocked by less important use?

Asked by Asd about 12 years ago

Yes.  There are multiple methods.

An off duty cop said my 2 friends were racing just because they were side by side in dropped trucks but he wasnt in his cop car so technically there is no proof what should they do at their court since they were arrested but rights werent read?
