can you join the police academy in year 11 and 12 or is that to young?

Asked by lozza about 12 years ago

I believe all states require a police officer to be at least 18 years old and have a high school diploma or GED as an absolute minimum. Most departments have more requirements than that (21+, college or military) to be employed.

I would suggest getting involved in the Explorers program at your local department. It is perfect for someone who is still in high school.

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 over 11 years ago

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

Asked by Writer23 over 11 years ago

It is impossible to say. A department will generally have guidelines regarding manpower as it relates to the call volume or work load of each unit.

If you are a child, talk to your parents.

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.
