Law Enforcement & Police - November 2007

Hi,
I recently found out someone was trying to find out where I work and what I do for a living. I got scared I thought I was being investigated without my consent.

I realized that three months ago I was looking for a job and so I applied in different companies and some of this companies do background checks. At first I freaked out but then I confirmed it was for work applications only.

It got me so curious... how can Private investigators or detectives find all that info? Where do they go? Any databases of my records that can be given without my consent?

Also any way to keep an eye for all those things that run without me knowing about it?

My boyfriend was arrested on Oct 2nd. The charges were bogus, basically lies. After the person testified to it, the grand jury no-billed it which means all charges dropped. Now...back in Sept 06, he was sentenced to 6 months but only did 4 and was released in Jan 07. Leavin him with 2 months, but got on 2 years parole instead. So when he was arrested Oct 2nd, this county put a hold on him. Now that these charges have been dropped, he is there and going to go in front of a judge this coming week. Since there was technically no parole violation, do you think a judge will actually hold him for nothing or worse, make him serve that last 2 months? He just did 44 days for NOTHING so perhaps they will give him credit for time served? Any information would help me, im not use to this and dont know the system! Please no bad comments!! Thanks!

I bounced two checks a while back (I'm a single mom with three kids and I thought another check was on it's way and it didn't get here in time for me to pay the checks) so the grocery store turned them over to the DA and the DA has a bad check program. You have to pay a TON of money and go to a class. I was scheduled for the class. They said this is the latest day I can take it (which was the only day I could get baby sitting for my kids) and I went to the wrong address (there are two streets by that name) so I was 15 minutes late and I didn't get in to the class. I signed a sheet saying that I had made an effort to go but that I did not attend due to being late. Could I go to jail over this?

I expect to be considered for with such a degree? I really want to eventually become a State Game Warden, but i know positions are hard to come by, and its not something that im likely to get into right away.... any suggestions helpful here, even if you say not to pursue such a degree.

The only jobs i can think that this will offer would be park ranger, cop, or game warden, and I'm afraid thats a very limited variety, since a few of those positions are hard to come by...I've also been accepted into a Respiratory Therapy program, and am wondering which path to take? I would love to be a Warden, but I'm just worried about how long it will take/ the possibilityof even becoming one. My state is Pennsylvania, if that helps. =)

I was given a ticket for driving to endanger for passing two cars at once. It was in a passing zone with plenty of clear road ahead. I've looked up the Mass. law about passing. It doesn't specificly allow or outlaw it. Here is a link to the law-

According to section 311A CrPC of India,the Magistrate will not pass an order if the person is not arrested at any point of time, but what is the power of police to obtain such handwritings , given voluntarily, in course of investigation? Is it mandatory to arrest the accused person named in the FIR and thereafter obtain his handwriting for their comparison?

In 1998. I had a premotion (esp) dream about someone being taken. I never looked into it until recently. I figured the cops would solve the problem. (catch the guy), but I have discovered they haven't.

I only own a cell phone and so I emailed the POLICE twice asking them to email me. I also called the Children hotline (800#)on the web (who acted weired towards me for asking about the case - when I asked if this case was still open they had to use offical words they could not answer my question and just say yes it is still open.

So, my q? again - what's taking the cops so long? I'm in CA and they are in OREGON. (they don't have a 800 #)
PS>> my dream told me that this case was linked to a case in Southern CA.
Any suggestions.....
All I really want to know if this case is solved - yes or no?

I was on probation for a DUI, I got on my birthday in FL!! I violated probation because I missed a meeting. I wasn't able to get there. I tried calling several times, crying..and even had my father call and leave messages. Turns out, the stupid lady was on vacation and the people who worked for her erased 'some' of my messages already. I left the state for a while and I am coming back for the holidays to see my family. Will they bother coming after someone like me? If I started working, would they come get me? or would they try to get my IP address on myspace? Please, I want to know if im in danger..and don't want to be picked up during Thanksgiving!! ;) Thanks.

I recently received a speeding ticket for going 55 in a 45 in MN. I am a MN resident and this is my first moving violation. I had heard that I can pay an extra fee to prevent the ticket from being reported to my insurance; is that correct?

I am unable to go to court because I will be out of town, but without going to court is there any other way to handle this?

Also, I am 17, if that has any effect upon my situation.

Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, Brittney Spears. None of them are doing jail time like the average citizen would have to do. And then they want us to respect the law. I havent seen a celeb do serious time even though the evidence is overwhelming. Bet they dont let O.J. off. They need to stay on these pretty girls like they do O.J. I guess its ok for me to go out and drink and drive if theyre only giving out minutes of jail time. Overcrowding was the excuse. What a joke. I have no respect for the law anymore because there is no equality in it. They can also hit you with tazers whenever they feel like it. Dont try to deny it police officers, its all over the news. Bring back the 10 percent that were good cops!

getting into federal Law Inforcement is a goal of mine but I'm trying to figure out which branch would be right for me. a few I have considered are the US Marshals, border patrol, and the DEA. I want a job that can physically and mentally challenge me and I'm also an outdoors person so I don't want to spend most my time behind a desk doing paper work so which one would be suitable for me?

Ok...here's the skinny! My daughter received a speeding ticket last Monday in Illinois. The officer took her license for 'bond' or something like that. Problem is, she is supposed to fly out to see family for Thanksksgiving, and she needs her I.D in order to get on the plane (as well as get her plane e-ticket). Her court date isn't until 20 December. Is there any way she can go tot he local courthouse and get her ID back and confirm the court date and let her signature be her bond? This was her first ticket.

Have you ever noticed that the UK Police seem to wear black anti stab vests on top of the high visibility jackets, making them useless.

Does anyone else think this seems crazy, surely wearing the anti stab vests under the hi vis jacket makes more sense

I have a hearing date of Jan. 7 for my DUI charge. I'm certainly going to be found guilty and have to do 24 hours in jail immediately following the case. That is the day of the college football national title game, and if WVU makes it, it would ruin my life to not be in New Orleans with my family for the game. It's the one thing me and my brothers and dad do every year together. Is there any way that I could petition to the court to allow me to plead guilty or no contest early, and just sign off on it and get my jail time and hearing done for in mid December so I wouldn't have to miss the game? State of WV, by the way...

....He should have joined the police, then, instead of risking HIS life, he could have driven around the streets, like a maniac, and endangered the lives of the public without any fear of redress!
