is it true that if you have a felony no matter how small you cant be a officer? if you can what state will allow you and where and how do you do this? a friend told him that another friend said they could borrow a tool out of the truck, when they went to get it that other friend said he didnt and called cops they were arrested for burglury of a vechile and then that same friend got off easy by saying the other boy who wants to be a cop, was the leader and planned it all. so the wanna be cop was charged with two crimes.the theft crime was dropped but the other stayed and he has paid out the ... for something he didnt really do. but like he saids i had the tool in my hand so i did take it, but it was suppose to be okay. i think it was a class a misdemenor.

confident-a large style of the Police Departments by the U. S. purely require a intense college and often times a 2 365 days AA or AS degree. criminal Justice and different levels are solid and supply you some large perception and counsel bearing on the regulation enforcement community. even though it is my opinion that having an English degree could be fairly an benefit over different levels. each and every city, county, state, and federal regulation enforcement company has there very own particular set of regulations, regulations, and tactics bearing on that distinctive company and/or jurisdiction. A key element in any efficient regulation enforcement occupation is the capacity for that individual to be waiting to speak the two orally and in writing. expert shows and right written correspondence is a key element in any progression in any regulation enforcement occupation.

Based upon my own knowledge....I can't see any law enforcement agency hiring a convicted felon based upon the federal laws that prohibit a convicted felon from having a firearm.
If you are convicted ONLY of a misdemeanor offense...as long as that offense doesn't involve crimes of violence or moral turpitude, you shouldn't have a problem.
Offenses committed as a minor or juvenile won't NORMALLY preclude you from consideration in law enforcement.

if you have a felony than no, no where in the US will you be able to become a police officer. Misdemeanors are on a case by case basis, and each law enforcement agency will consider them on a case by case basis.

Misdemeanors are NOT felonies.
