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 don't know. You should pop in to the local department, introduce yourself and ask. They might even have a citizens academy where they go over all of the department's functions.
Share Answer: 
Texas Rangers for non-patrol. LAPD-type for patrol (though with two shoulder patches)
Share Answer: 
No, I am not paid to participate here. I don't think I've seen the Alaska Satte Trooper show. I tend to avoid cop programs.
Share Answer: 
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.

Ok.
Share Answer: 
Maybe. Are you an adult and can you show the property in dispute was clearly owned by you? There are too many factors for me to make any kind of determination on what you might be able to do. Why don't you got talk to a local police officer?
Share Answer: 
A forensic science degree may be useful for certain specialized duties. The academy teaches the absolute basics needed to begin a policing career. It does not teach you everything you need to know. It is a starting point only.
