Well, you do as my daughter is doing, take criminal justice courses. She is going for something different, but at this point, she could work with detectives or be a parole officer, and i can tell you this, my ex sister in law did it, and she got her arsse whipped twice, by females. So go into it with some caution.

Parole is an interim step between being in jail and being free.  Our system allows for folks to get out of jail but they must check in with authorities on a regular basis and if they get arrested or break any of the rules of their parole they go back to jail often times.  If they do not break parole for the specified amount of time, they are allowed to rejoin society.

The rules on what can or can not be done vary from state to state, and sometimes from court to court within a state.  The only way to get a real answer is to contact an attorney who does criminal law in your city/county.  \n\nYour husband may be entitled to a public defender on the parole violation.  Check with the public defender's office.\n\nContact the attorney he had at his criminal case.\n\nCall the local county bar association and ask if they have a referral service for criminal cases.

I would think that you must start by studying criminology and psychology. Perhaps a course in sociology?

Get hired by a Police Department, get a few years under your belt doing police work, get some recognition for doing a good job and then get yourself promoted (or transferred) into one of the detective units to learn about being an investigator.  After doing all this over a span of several years, you might be ready for a spot in the SVU.  Good luck and have patience.

You can just go to the police station and ask. Or talk to one when they pull you over. \n My mother has been a cop for almost 23 yrs. When you reach 14 yrs of age you can become a Explore (which is like a cop in training)  I use to be one. This gives you the experience and the knowledge you need to become a cop. Just ask your local station if they have this program! (Explores program)       Most do! Good luck!

I think the minimum requirement in GA is that you have to have held a Law Enforcement Position for a mimimum time of 2 years, or Military Equivelent.   \n\nThe best thing to do is to get a job with a PI Agency and get the experience.  Most agencies will help you get your individual license, but until you do...you would be working under theirs.
