Asked by Jinu18 about 12 years ago

I don't know. I did a lot of things as a cop, but I was never a K9 handler.

If a person happened upon a murder crime scene, called 911, and stayed until the police arrived. Would an officer take that persons statement at the crime scene or bring them back to the station and take the statement there?

Thanks in advance.

At the scene.

If the caller was believed to have more involvement than just stumbling into a crime scene, investigators might want to interview the person at the PD so the statement can be recorded on video. However, unless the person is under arrest, transporting the subject to the PD must be voluntary. If the subject does not want to go, officers would have to collect the statement on scene.

if you got caught in a parking lot "parking" and you didnt sign a paper or anything does that show up on a record anywhere?

Asked by sydney about 12 years ago

Your information and the details of the contact are probably stored in the local department's database. If they are networked with other agencies, they all departments in that network would have access to the information as well.

If you were not charged with a crime, then the information would not be in a national criminal database.

School record - probably. If you were charged with something, then criminal record - yes.

I plan on pursuing in becoming a police officer, I have had juvenile offenses though. I committed a first degree armed robbery, was tried in juvenile court but I now have a sealed ADULT record somehow. Is this still possible for me?

Asked by Julian about 12 years ago

I don't know what your state's laws may be in regard to this. I would hope that most departments would not hire a convicted armed robber, but that's just me.

Asked by derika about 12 years ago

If you are not an adult, you have to obey your parents. If you leave without permission, you can be detained, returned to your parents or taken to a juvenile detention facility (jail).
