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.

When applying to be a police officer you are asked if you had been involved in any criminal activity, if i answer honestly even though I have a clean record could it legally be used to obtain a search warrant or for a criminal investigation?

Asked by MICHEAL about 12 years ago

Depends on the circumstances.  However, I'm not sure that you are describing the ideal police candidate anyway...

During the police officer application, if a person admits to a past crime they were not caught doing would they get arrested?

Asked by InquiringMind almost 12 years ago

It depends on a number of factors including jurisdictional authority and the statute of limitations.

In other words, if anyone with a license can carry a gun, that gives them the power to kill people. Even if they only use their gun for the right reasons, they still have so much power without necessarily that much training.

Asked by Hello (follow up) about 12 years ago

The "power to kill" people does not come from a concealed carry permit.  If you believe that, you are very mistaken on the law - both natural and statutory.

Depends on state law.  Different states have different laws, so contact a local law enforcement agency.
