Even a minor crime inclusive of it extremely is a considerable difficulty interior the eyes of a federal company. considering you have been eighteen, it extremely is an grownup criminal. it is going to in all probability no longer be expunged, so do no longer anticipate that. you are able to continuously bypass to varsity for criminal justice, yet you will have an extremely perplexing time looking a police branch or federal company which will hire you. regulation enforcement businesses, state or federal, prefer bright-clean records, sturdy college records, and so on. in case you bypass to varsity for criminal justice, you will in all probability in no way get employed by a PD or all people else. you would be able to ok finally end up working as a branch shop protection shield. purely ask your self whether it extremely is quite truthfully worth the time and funds once you are able to desire to finally finally end up without a activity.

Depends on the department, you cant say law enforcement and have all jurisdictions go by the same guidelines as to how to hire people. I live on the Rez and I've seen people hired at the Tribal Police department that have done some serious wrongs. It just depends. I've also known some crooked cops and I know for sure that they're still working in law enforcement. Yea, it's scary.

Sure they can. It just depends on the severity. My boyfriend has been accepted to an academy and is doing training to be on a swat team. He has had some possession charges, drug parephernalia charges and a DUI. No felonies. It was all over 5 years ago, except the DUI. But, that has not affected his changes of becoming an officer. In fact, he is one of the most acredited students in his class.

No felony convictions allowed. Some misdemeanors are allowed and would have to be several years old. If he's really that bad, then hopefully it'll come out in the background checks, polygraph, and interview.

No felony convictions. The process to become a Police Officer is long with allot of tests. Plus there is the Polygraph and the always popular question " Have you ever committed any un-detected crimes." and so on.

Nope. Law enforcement hopefuls HAVE TO HAVE a clean criminal record; it's not prefered, it's required.
And don't think your friend won't get caught lying about his/her past. Hiring procedures have ways of looking up past criminal history.

Depends on the crimes he committed, bt they do take psychological tests that should catch him. I know he can get in the army even if he has felonies on his record.

My advice is for your friend to call the police department he wants to work for and ask them directly. Some crimes do not matter and some do. Go to the source.
