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 tank about 12 years ago

Unless they have been adjudicated to be mentally ill, then probably.  Laws vary from state to state, and many states ignore the Second Amendment anyway.  So, check your local laws and don't take legal advice (which this is not) from a guy on the internet.

Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.

I am trying to get in a police academy in Florida.I have read that traffic violation do not DQ you from getting accepted but i am wondering.I have 4 traffic citations. 3 speeding and 1 from my brakes failing in a wreck but he put following close

Asked by Johnny about 12 years ago

You can probably still enter an academy, but it will be difficult to get a department to hire you.  Three speeding citations and an at-fault accident is a fairly significant indicator of poor driving.  Few agencies would want to put an officer into a patrol car for 40+ hours a week and expose themselves to the potential liability of his or her foreseeable bad driving.

As time passes, the citations become less of a problem for getting hired.  For example, two years since the last citation looks like you have improved your driving.  Five years looks even better.  Different departments will have different guidelines based on the agency's risk tolerance.  

In washington state legal age of consent is 16 but i read their is a 5 year rule ?, does this mean a 16 year old can legally date or engage in sexual activity with anyone from ages 16 to 21 legally and how old can they LEGALLY date if not?(5/27/14

Asked by jada over 11 years ago

I have no idea.  You should contact a police officer in the state of Washington about those laws.

What are the typical questions a person would ask a murder suspect in an interrogation room?

Thanks

Asked by edwurd over 11 years ago

It depends on the circumstances.  Detectives go through a lot of training to learn how to interview people and how to investigate homicides.  It is far to in-depth of a question for me to answer.
