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.

How long does it take for a officer to wright a report

Asked by Jamiyssalinn@gmail.com over 11 years ago

It depends on the report.

My DUI trial was postponed 5 times. The cop didn't show on the 5th and I was in detox which my lawyer forgot to mention resulting in a warrant so it was clearly scheduled. Why would he not have shown and what are his chances of showing to the next?

Asked by Ron over 11 years ago

I don't know; I am not a mind reader.  It is possible that the court has failer to subpoena him/her properly.  He/She might be out on medical leave.  (etc, etc, etc)  It seems to me that the real question should be why can't your defense attorney tell you what's going on?

What would the cops do if a teenager beat another teenager with a baseball bat in broad daylight, with a nearby security guard as a witness to the crime?

Asked by Jessie over 11 years ago

It depends on what the investigation revealed.  Was it an assault or self-defense?  Since I was not there and did not conduct the investigation, it is impossible for me to say what the best action should be for the officers to take.

Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.

Are there procedures that police officers use that are wrong according to their training (not "textbook" perfect) but are still used because they are more convenient and/or make more sense?

Asked by Jes over 11 years ago

Nothing in reality is ever textbook perfect. There are too many variables in every investigation and interaction.  Also, criminals rarely cooperate.
