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.

Call the police.

When cops do prostitution stings, are the arrests always made on the spot? How likely are police to make arrests if the act isn't witnessed in a sting type operation? Been watching a lot of dateline predator stories and the topic never comes up.

Asked by notacop over 10 years ago

Police officers are not required to arrest someone at the time of the crime.  People can be arrested after the crime has been committed.

Do the police handle illegal sites, videos on the internet? If so why are there so many sites and videos still up? Is there anything that I can do to stop these things from happening?

Asked by Azzy over 10 years ago

Yes, law enforcement addresses illegal activity on the internet.  Jurisdiction is often the largest problem for these cases.  For example, a police officer in the United States cannot prosecute someone who is outside of the USA.

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?

Yep.

what does the first responding office do when they arrive at a crime?

Asked by cutiepie18 about 11 years ago

Every scene is different.  If the crime is in progress, stopping the criminal from hurting others is the first priority.  If the crime is not in progress (or once the criminal has been stopped), providing aid to injured people is the highest priority.

Asked by paulina over 10 years ago

I'm not sure what your question is.

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 over 10 years ago

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