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.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
If you are an adult, they should not withhold your mail from you. I would suggest considering some other housing arrangement if you cannot get along.

If you believe he is doing this, and that it is not part of an official investigation, you can file a complaint with his department or with the Utah Peace Officer Standards and Training council: http://publicsafety.utah.gov/post/inservice/decertify.html

What kind of gun? A quick Google search shows 18+ for long guns and 21+ for handguns. Long guns that are scarey looking are still 18+, but require a purchase permit according to Wikipedia. I can only assume that non-scarey looking long guns do not require the same permit. You probably want to take a look at MN §624.7131 for more detailed information.

I'd suggest considering is a learning experience. You are not likely to be in any trouble if what you have described is true. However, it could have all gone very badly for you.
I was in a similar situation once when I was in college. I rode in a (unknown to me) stolen car with the friend of a friend. The driver (unknown to me) was wanted for murder. It wasn't until two days after that ride I learned about him and the car. It taught me a valuable lesson about who to catch rides with.

Committing crimes like theft and DUI are serious, and will be seen as such by an employing agency. Your best bet is to be completely honest (any lies will get you immediately barred from employment.) A department will generally take into consideration the circumstances surrounding the crimes such as how long ago did it happen (were you a 13 year old when you stole from someone as opposed to having done it last week.)
Arrested Development fan, I assume? Funny show.

What you describe is the crime of battery, an unlawful touching. Depending on the state you live in there may be enhancers or separate laws regarind the sexual nature of the battery.
You are clearly in a dangerous situation when someone is touching your breasts against your will, and you should take such reasonable actions to protect yourself.

I don't know Virginia law, but in many (most?) states, you can pass all of the tests and still not be hired. If you think about it, say 100 people pass all of the tests but there are only 10 positions open. 90 people passed but won't be hired.
I have no idea what your department's background investigation requirements are. If he/she was convicted of domestic assault or domestic battery, he/she is not allowed to be in possession of firearms by federal (and probably Virginia) law. A department might not want their firearms to be around a prohibited person. You should probably talk to your recruiter about your situation for more information.
