Talk to a recruiter and be honest with him or her. Tell them up front. Also, talk with your lawyer or whomever it is you are dealing with. Do you have a probation officer or a Social Worker of sorts? It is usually up to the judge and what you did and what kind of sincerity you have to what you have done. I don't what the extent of your crime is so I can't say anything. I was in the military for 8 years, but I have been out for 10.

I dont have references per say but I do have life experiences. I graduated High School when I was 17 and I enlisted before graduation day.
Shortly after graduation me and a few friends decided that it would be a good idea to hot wire golf carts at a private club and go joy riding in the middle of the night. Needless to say we found that maybe this wasnt the best of ideas, we were caught and arrested.
I was charged with misdemeanor destruction of property. Since I was already enlisted but had not yet left for boot camp, I was granted leniency. I paid a fine, had to do a few days in the county jail and I had to make another trip to MEPS to try to get a waiver. My waiver was granted and I was shipped out.
My answer is... Yes its possible depending on the crime that you committed and if you are able to acquire a waiver from the MEPS. If the mentioned crime was a felony, it is doubtful that a waiver would be granted but anything is possible.

First, it probably all depends on the crime. I mean, if the crime is drug related or a crime of a couple other types the military may not want you, because they don't need extra problems.
As far as giving you references, I don't know how you expect anybody to give you them, when we do not know you, so we can not say how trustworthy, intelligent, or anything else you are.
As a matter of a fact, I would go as far as to say your intelligence is in question, because if the military was your chosen career then how did you get involved in a crime that put your career path in jeopardy. Then, you even try to get references from strangers, duh!

Back in the old days it was either jail or service. But with an all volunteer force that may be a different story. I would certainly talk to a recruiter, Army would be best, since they are needing the most, and forget the Air Force) and they would be able to give you the straight scoop.

It can be used to reduce or eliminate the charges to allow you to enter service. You may still have to pay court costs and fines etc. Remember, some charges are just to big to look the other way.

yes but if you are convicted the military will know it and act accordingly and yes that is fair, if you are proven innocent then the military Will see you as innocent, you sign a waiver at enlistment to this

you can try it, however, a Recruiter CANNOT go to court to try to get you out of it. Also, your disposition CANNOT say anything about the charges being dropped or lessened as long as you enlist.
