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.

If police just show up to a girls house, and speak with their mom, and they tell her she has to come into the police station as a summons, and the mother says that 1 minute before they showed up she saw her ex drive past the house, what is going on?

Are the police taught to try and arrest armed criminals away from the public at all costs? For example, say the police have tracked a dangerous fugitive to a restaurant, would they wait until he leaves the restaurant to arrest him, or go right in?

Asked by Sam I over 11 years ago

Officers are trained to protect the public.  Each incident is differerent, and the risk to the public could be greater by allowing him to leave the restaurant.  For example, what if he is parked by the front door and has a bomb in the vehicle?  It might be safer to take him down inside.

There is no way to control a situation and completely protect the public.  That is an unrealistic, but common, view.  Officers will take reasonable actions based on the information they have at the time.

Can a correctional officer marry someone who went to jail years ago in there past, completed their probation and restitution fine? I used to live with her for 2 yrs while she was on probation. Her past did not affect my hiring process.

Asked by Paris over 11 years ago

There is no law against it that I am aware of.  You should check with your department regs if you are worried about your job.

I was wondering I am 16 and pregnant. I don't think It would be safe to keep my baby at home due to money issues. Is there anyway I can move out with getting caught up with the law in Missouri. I'm wanting to move in with my boyfriend.

Asked by Nikki over 11 years ago

I'd suggest contacting a family law attorney in your state.
