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.

I'm not sure what your question is.

I am considering purchasing a collapsible baton purely for self defense, it is however illegal in the state I live in, how strict will local police officers be if I carry this?

Asked by Aron almost 11 years ago

If it is a crime for you to carry the baton, then I would expect that you would be arrested.

My former boss loaned me her vehicle so I could watch her children for a few months. They recently got into daycare. She threatened me through text that she would report it stolen since I wouldnt watch her kids Monday due to illness. Is that illegal?

Sounds like you probably should return the car and find a new friend.

I need to talk to a cop not to submit a crime but to see if this is a crime or to much punishment for my age.

Asked by Daisie almost 11 years ago

Ok. Call your local police department and ask for their assistance.

I am considering going into law enforcement but i want to get a tattoo on my upper arm. If it it slightly visible when wearing short sleeve shirts would it effect me getting a job?

Asked by Jason over 11 years ago

Yep.

Does a police station have an onsite medical person like a Nurse in the building?

Thanks

Asked by Edwurd about 11 years ago

Not usually.  A medium to large size jail will typically have medical staff on duty, however.
