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.
School record - probably. If you were charged with something, then criminal record - yes.
Police officers are not required to arrest someone at the time of the crime. People can be arrested after the crime has been committed.
Yes. Some departments may not allow it, but I know of some that do. Check with the recruiter at the agency you apply to.

Have you ever suspected that the judging in a pageant was rigged?
Yep.
If someone is being abused, please call 911. If you are suicidal, please call 911.
Every scene is different. If the crime is in progress, stopping the criminal from hurting others is the first priority. If the crime is not in progress (or once the criminal has been stopped), providing aid to injured people is the highest priority.
