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.

"Questions are a burden to others; answers a prison for oneself."

Bonus points for anyone who knows from where that quote derives.

If I were to get into a confrontation with someone and the police were called. Am I allowed to ask for another police officer to take control of the scene. If the original one had history with the person I got into the confrontation with?

Asked by Machines almost 13 years ago

No.  If you believe the officer handles the incident in an improper manner, you can request to speak to his/her supervisor.

If a former co-worker posed as me and hacked my 401k and savings account ( after I was laid-off ) from a former employer, should I call the police or a lawyer? I don't know if they have stolen anything or not yet as I cannot get into my own account.

Asked by Sherry over 12 years ago

I would call the police.

Is there a ticket or fine for leaving my bumper and license on the street?

Asked by Sean about 13 years ago

Possibly.  You should probably inquire with your local law enforcement agency.

Do you investigate window screens that have been tampered with and removed?

Asked by Marc about 12 years ago

Sure.

Between police officers, is it frowned upon to violate a persons fourth amendment rights? or is there a "he was guilty anyways" attitude?

Asked by JOHN over 12 years ago

It's not frowned upon; it is illegal.  Anyone that has a "he's guility of something" attitude has no business being in law enforcement.
