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.

Asked by Carter over 11 years ago

No.

After a suspect is questioned by a Detective, how long is that suspect held for if they are not going to charge him with anything? Is it 24 Hours, 48 Hours? Do they release that suspect(s) right away after questioning?

Thanks in advance

Asked by Edwurd over 11 years ago

If someone is not going to be charged with anything, detectives are not likely to hold the subject for any period of time.  States vary on how long an officer has to charge someone (generally 24 or 48 hours).

I went to pray over the homes that burnt down last summer and there was a no trespassing sign but the gate was open so I drove 20 feet past the sign and turned around but the sign said I will be fined and my picture was taken. What will happen?

Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. If they allow it, they will describe the process.

Are police officers trained in emergency vehicle driving as part of their academy training? Or are they only trained if they will be driving a police car?

Asked by Jet over 11 years ago

I would imagine most states require police officers to receive emergency vehicle operation training in the academy.
