How can I track my phone that is stolen?

If you have not lost your phone, try installing one of these programs...

In your experience are a lot of police officers former-military? If so, are they usually former enlisted or former officers?

Thanks.

Asked by Johan almost 12 years ago

I'd say about 1/4 to 1/3 of the officers I have worked with are former military. Of those about 90% were enlisted/NCOs.

Hello Sir,

I am checking if a PND issued in a police station for Shoplifting is ever deleted from some ones record? COnsidering this is the only offence the person ever committed.

Asked by Question1 about 12 years ago

I have no idea what a PND is.

Generally, if you have ever been charged with a crime, then it is part of your official criminal history.
