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.
It depends. Some small agencies will work off of a county channel. Others will handle the dispatching, but the county will handle the 911 call answering. Others will have a full 911 center (take the emergency calls and dispatch.) I hate to say "it depends" so much, but things vary a lot.

Share Answer: 
Possibly. Contact the recruiting division of the Maine State Police. They will answer all of your questions and assist you with the application process.

Has being an OBGYN affected your own beliefs about when "life" begins?

Share Answer: 
I don't know, but NY and NJ sure do like to tell people what to do. It seems just living is either illegal or nearly taxed to death in those states. You should probably check with the local jurisdiction.
