Question

Can I ever get any kind of law enforcement job.

Answer 1

POSSIBLE--DUI REDUCED IS STILL A MISDEMEANOR--BUT WATCH YOU HABITS--WE ALL DRINK AND WE ALL DRIVE BUT WE ALL KNOW WHAT A SAFE LEVEL IS--BY NOW YOU MIGHT HAVE FIGURED OUT YOU HAVE A PROBLEM AND WOULD SEEK HELP THROUGH AA OR WHAT EVER--I DENIED IT FOR YEARS AND I WAS DRINKING AT 14 TO 19 RECKLESS AND CAREFREE--BOOZE WAS ABUNDANT AT ANY SAFE HOUSE WITH HIPPIE FRIENDS--SO ONE DAY I ADMITTED I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE JUICE AND SOLVED IT-I HAVE COMPLETED 42 YEARS OF LAW ENF IN SEPT AND HAVE HAD MY SHARE OF STAYING AWAY FROM THE BOOZE-NEVER WAS CAUGHT--JUST WAS LUCKY-BEEN A BATTLE TO GO TO PARTIES AT CHRISTMAS, NEW YR, THANKSGIVING, 4TH JULY ETC AND NOT WANT A DRINK--GET HELP AND JOIN THE POLICE FORCE IF YOU WANT TO

Answer 2

I used to be the department background investigator. I would not hire you.

I hope you don't get a law enforcement job. 3 DUIs show a pattern and I am willing to bet you have driven drunk far more then 3 times.

1 DUI is a concern, but if you have an otherwise clean record and are a good canidate, it will probably be overlooked.

2 DUIs is a serious concern, you probably wouldn't be hired. But with enough time between them you may be able to get on with a smaller department and work your way up.

3, no way.

Answer 3

Dude. Stop drinking and driving. If you drink when you go out, make sure you have a dedicated sober friend along to drive you. You have THREE; want more? And I would tend to doubt you would be able to qualify as a police officer but I don't know for sure. You're lucky you don't live in Sweden; your first offense you lose your Dl for one year; the second offense, (there is no third) forever, as in never to drive again, which is why Sweden has the lowest incidence of DUI in the world.
You could still qualify for a security guard or bodyguard, but you should go into AA to show you're committed to quit.

Answer 4

Not as a police officer. Possibly a civilian employee in a police organization, maybe.. but NEVER as a police officer.

Any law enforcement agency will see you as too much of a liability with your poor driving record / arrests and possible alcohol abuse issues. Not only would the liability be to great, but your past record could and would be brought up in court every time you were there to testify and it would hamper your credibility in any criminal proceeding.

With one DUI 10 years ago and a clean record, maybe.

But Three arrest for the same thing in 10 years? Never.

Sorry to break it to you.

Answer 5

No, and you will probably lose your license if you get another DUI ever again. You are border line habitual. In some states that is a felony. In some countries one DUI and you are put to death. Maybe you should consider some rehabilitation like AA.

Answer 6

Yeah, washing police cars. Or maybe as a target at the pistol range. Most police stations are looking for good custodians.

Answer 7

Not that I'm aware of. Any pattern of behavior such as that pretty much disqualifies you for anything to do with law enforcement.

Answer 8

the crime: trolling, repeat offender in that he made up a false criminal history and asking whether he can become a cop.

the verdict: guilty

the sentence: to be taken to the public square, naked and flogged, followed by public administration of a punishment enema with hot chili peppers.

Answer 9

Hopefully NOT!!!!

Someone as irresponsible as you should NOT be in a postion of authority and CERTAINLY NOT with a weapon.

Perhaps rehabilitation should be in your future instead of a career in law enforcement!

Answer 10

Here is a novel idea, quit drinking
