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.

how can i report someone on the run from a warrant

Asked by brenda over 11 years ago

By phone is often the easiest for many people. Sometimes walking into the police station is easier.

After a suspect is questioned by a Detective, how long is that suspect held for if they are not going to charge him with anything? Is it 24 Hours, 48 Hours? Do they release that suspect(s) right away after questioning?

Thanks in advance

Asked by Edwurd almost 12 years ago

If someone is not going to be charged with anything, detectives are not likely to hold the subject for any period of time.  States vary on how long an officer has to charge someone (generally 24 or 48 hours).

I don't know.  Contact the agency you are interested in and talk to their recruiter about your situation.

In washington state legal age of consent is 16 but i read their is a 5 year rule ?, does this mean a 16 year old can legally date or engage in sexual activity with anyone from ages 16 to 21 legally and how old can they LEGALLY date if not?(5/27/14

Asked by jada about 12 years ago

I have no idea.  You should contact a police officer in the state of Washington about those laws.

Just want to say thanks for your answers. Yeah I know the police and military are smart despite the stereotypes (which might just exist where I live.) I really want to be a navy officer but I don't know if that'll work out because of my asthma.

Asked by Phillip over 12 years ago

The Navy is a good way to go.  My family has had at least one man in the US Navy continuously since 1943.  You definitely want to talk to a recruiter about the asthma, but I don't think it would bar you from service.

Asked by Kate almost 12 years ago
