My worst experience with law enforcement was when I was 9 years old. My mother was being arrested at 6am for selling drugs. The cops were searching our home and I walked out of my bedroom to a cop pointing a gun at me. I think about it often and I'm 22 years old now. I get very nervous when I see the police (more nervous than the average).

no, but then the police get away with a lot of things they shouldn't. There are good cops and bad cops!

We are lucky! We have some of the best dispatchers in the state of FL. I am a field supervisor, and often they have started calling support teams before I have to ask them. I feel for them as they send my officers to calls and they don't get to hear the end result, just a disposition code.\n\nWe do listen up for each other because we are on the same team. Our dispatchers attend line-up and we are able to voice our concerns and them to us. I have had some of my officers write letters of commendation to telecommunicators who have gone above and beyond. Open lines of communication behind the scenes are needed by all agencies.\n\nWe are also allowed to use humor sparingly which lightens up things. An officer got out with an individual with the last name of Mayo and he ran a warrants check. Sure enough, he had an outstanding misdemeanor warrant out on him. What did the dispatcher say? "Unit 219, hold the Mayo."

Yes.\n\nI witnessed an altercation between people in two cars.  One car had a 20-something guy and his mother, and the other had this muscle-head/roid-ragey dude.  The first people pulled to the median after this guy was tailgating them and honking and stuff, and the other guy pulled into a parking lot nearby.  He got out of his car in a rage, ripped off his shirt (he was very muscular and apparently really proud of it), and he went running over to the other car and slammed his hand into the side of it so hard that it put a dent in the metal of the door.  He also reached in and tried to punch the guy inside the car.\nI called the police and reported the incident.  They took a statement from me at the scene.\nMonths later, someone served a subpoena on me (I was going to have to testify about the incident) but then I called back and they said it had been resolved.\n\nI also witnessed a hit-and-run accident involving minimal damage.  I turned around and followed the car that had broken the right-of-way (he ran a red light and got clipped by someone who had the green, but he kept going).  I got his license number, went home and called the local police for that area.  They thanked me and told me that someone had indeed reported being hit there.  I told them what I'd seen and offered to be a witness but they did not end up needing me, apparently.\n\nI'm no snitch, but I don't like it when people do harm to other people, or get all aggro on them, and don't get in trouble for it.  People need to be responsible for their actions, and I have no qualms about telling what I saw when someone does a dickish thing to someone else.\n\n\n-Jeffrey

sorry i'm not in the field but have a couple friends who are. they are actually training for other things. one is training to be an emt and the other a cop. i assume the background of the classes they've taken helped them get the job.

sorry no idea, hope someone does so that they help you.  By the way, why not contact the police itself on phone, that will be even a quick search for the information you need right.

Yes they do here. Their nice, but they don't do their job. I can just call my brother and friends that live up the street, they would get here faster than the cops and do what needs to be done to clear up the problem.

Yes.  I work with a few different local police departments and I trust all of them.  As for the city I live in, I do, very much.  There are some great officers there and they are respectful and caring.  They try and do the best they can for the community.  The chief is awesome and backs his officers.  We don't have a lot leave from there.

Go for it.  But I'm a California cop, so I don't know how well that will figure into your project.\n\nClick on the icon, and drop me a line.  We'll go from there.
