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.

will a domestic incident report disqualify me from becoming a police officer? no arrest, no charges

Asked by oliver3 over 12 years ago

Nope.

After a suspect is questioned and released from a police station, how does that suspect(s) get back home or to their car if it's parked at another location? Call a taxi or does a Police Officer drive them back to where they need to go? Thank You

Asked by edwurd about 12 years ago

Any of the above.  It could be anything that is reasonable.  Sometimes a suspect will not want to be seen in a police car (looks like a snitch) and will prefer to walk.  Other times a family member might pick them up.

How long does it take for a officer to wright a report

Asked by Jamiyssalinn@gmail.com almost 12 years ago

It depends on the report.

Just to add, my window shades were down so when I heard him I went to the window from behind them. Could I have been mistaken for a burglar trying to ambush him? Also, how should I apologize for the false alarm (accidental)? (I'm a kid who was alone)

Asked by DDG about 12 years ago

Accidents happen and a lot of people mistakenly set off their alarms.  However, the officers don't know which alarms are accidents or real until they investigate them.  If during the course of that investigation, someone surprises them - well, things might get tense for a few minutes.  Calling the PD once you realize a mistake has been made is the best course of action.  They can tell you if they want you to go outside, stay inside or whatever.

I have a video message saved on my phone of a ex friend threatening to hurt me. If I go to the police to submit a report would my phone be taken away ?

Asked by girl22 almost 12 years ago

The video is evidence. They will need to seize the phone at least long enough to take the video from the phone.

What do you do when parents don't allow young adults over 21 to go out with others? Is there any restraining order which forces parents to allow young adults to have freedom?

Asked by moonbunnie2012@aol.com almost 12 years ago

Ask me a serious question.

If you are an adult - move out of your parents' home. Get a job and make your own way in life.
