I have a friend who's looking to get in to law inforcement. They've got the polygraph coming up and are being told they should lie about doing drugs 13 years ago. They haven't touched a drink or drugs for 13 years and don't know what to do. I suggested that they tell the truth and that they won't be judged for mistakes they made that long ago but is this opinion correct or should my friend lie?

One day, me and a friend from school went to the mall. We did not have school that day, but we had a meeting for a club we are in, so we were in our uniforms. The meeting was over at 9:45 and we were planning to go home and change first. But then we realized that mall opens at 10:00. We never been to the mall when it opens, and we were always curious on how empty the mall is when it opens. So we headed for the mall. We got there and it was awesome, there was nobody there. We went to some stores and got something to eat. At about 11:00, we were planning to go home. But then a mall security guard saw us. He asked why we weren't at school. We explained we had none. Then he questioned why we had uniforms and called it a likely story. He then handcuffed us and took us in the back. We were led to a small 6' x 8' cell. He put us both in there with our handcuffs still on behind our backs. He said he'd have to check out some things. He came back and said that he called around

I know this is totally stupid, so please spare me the mean comments.... I got got shoplifting yesterday and I was just wondering what the consequences usually are. I got a citation but was not arrested. I have to go get processed at the jail in two weeks and then see the judge two weeks after that. Does anyone know what I should do? Should I get a lawyer? The owner at the store told me something about restitution but I don't fully understand. Also, does anyone know what type of charge this is? It was 74 dollars worth of stuff...

I had some police search my house a while back, they found not even a half gram of marijuana in a safe, also in the safe was a $110 dollars scale and about $200 dollars cash. They took the marijuana and then said they had to take my 75 dollar safe and the 110 dollar scale and my cash because all of this was inside the safe...is this legal?! Because that 200 dollars was from my last paycheck from work, the scale wasnt needed so i can see why they took that, but the safe was to hide my money from my friends...is this legal to take things that arent illegal? Im sure the crooked cops kept the money for themselves...who knows...but i think it isnt legal...i just want to see what answers i get from you...thank you!

Im interested in the mafia but im not sure what they do or if they exist. does the mafia(s) in New York city still exist and what crimes do they commit? And by committing crimes how much money do they get cause its not like mobsters have day time jobs right? Also is the mafia like what is seen in the movie "Goodfellas". And if the cops know who the mob bossses are why dont they arrest them? And one more question what do the mafia do on a day to day bases and are they rich?

One day, my friends had to get to school for some club their in at like 6:00 in the morning, so I walked to school solo. On the way, I decided to walk into a Fashion Footwear that was on the way to school to check something out. But as it was only 7:00, it was still closed. So I walked down the plaza when all of a sudden, a parking meter just broke. The top fell off and quarters were falling everywhere. Within seconds, a security guard at the plaza came running in. For no reason he accused me of this. He told em to empty my purse. Inside my purse, he found three quarters. He accused me of theft He then handcuffed me to a nearby dumpster. It was embarrassing. Not only was I in my school uniform, but a school bus passed by and people I knew saw me handcuffed. Then the police arrived. They asked me a few questions and told me I would have to come with them. They handcuffed me behind my back and took me to school first. I was brought in with my handcuffs still on (so embarrassing)

I just received a letter in the mail about a parking ticket that had a penalty added to it because apparently I had a parking ticket on May 4 that I wasn't aware of. I sometimes get parking tickets for "overtime parking", meaning I leave my car on the street overnight. I'm not debating that fact, but the cop who issues the ticket often fails to secure it to my car, resulting in the wind blowing it away. It's happened before, and I got another parking ticket last week that I would not have known about if I didn't happen to be standing outside when the wind blew it up the sidewalk.
I can either pay the ticket (an extra $30, not a huge deal, but it's the point of the thing) or go to traffic court to dispute it. I am unable to go because it coincides with my work hours, and I can't afford to do that right now. Could I maybe send them a written complaint? What's the best thing to do here? Thanks for your opinion!

Well one day after a half day of school, I had to watch my sister because my parents were out of town for the evening. She kept bugging me to go to the mall, so I took her. We went into all these stores and she kept buying stuff. Then we went into Claire's and she found a bracelet she had to have. I told her no, you spent all your money. Then my mom called me, so I picked it up and talked to her. I told me sister, just stay here. But while I was talking, she walked off, but I couldn't chase her in a store while talking to my mom. After a couple minutes, she hung up and I went to find my sister. She was sitting in a chair with her hand handcuffed to the chair. She tried to steal that bracelet. Some man asked if I was the sister. I told him yes so he sat me down, and handcuffed me to my sister. Within minutes, that cops came. They talked to both of us. Finally, the said we'd have to come down to the station. So he handcuffs me behind my back (very embarrassing because I'm still in my

I was thinking about getting a graveyard shift security guard position in Memphis. I thought about this because I need to study a lot anyway so mind as well get a job that lets you sit and read and get up once every 30min or so to do rounds. So I was wondering if most security jobs are like this? If not then do you tend to get lucky and get one like this or do you get to pick and choose (since security guard companies are the ones that hire you and send you out to diffrent places).

If a defense attorney proves to the jury that the alleged victim has lied over 10 times to the jury about things not related to the actual alleged assault, would that jury believe what the alleged victim says about being assaulted? Also there are no witnesses, marks, bruises etc, only the alleged victims word against the defendants word. The defendant has not told any lies in court. Would the alleged victim have any credibility with the jury after being proven to have lied many times to that jury?
