ANY BI's out there or other LEO's with advice?????

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am currently applying to a few agencies in my area and for the most part I am a good candidate for a LEO position I am 32 I have had the same job for the last 10yrs I currently hold a Firearms permit(2) one for my SPO security job. My question to anyone that can try and answer it for me is: I currently have on my record that when I was 19 I was charged with 4 counts of Assault and 4 counts of Battery, 1 count of deadly weapon concealed, 1 count deadly weapon with intent to injure, and 1 count of reckless endangerment. I know this sounds really bad but there were 4 people that I had an altercation with in a beach town in the summer of 92" that pressed these charges on me. I went to court and nobody showed up no officers no witnesses and by the way no gun which I never had by the way!!!!! I plead guilty to 1 count of ASSAULT which was verbal back then. I was really scared I never did anything wrong ever in my life and to me this was a big deal.. my lawyer suggested the plea bargain... big mistake right? I know I wish I were a little older and wiser before I took the plea I just wanted to get out of there if you know what I mean.. This plea did not effect me getting firearms later on in life or a CCW permit for my state either which is Md hard to believe right? Well laws changed and in 1999 I lost my gun rights and I had to return my permit. Any crime that you were found guilty for and convicted that carried more than a 18 month sentence misdeameanor or not you could no longer possess a firearm in MD or a permit for that matter. So my friend in STATE POLICE at the time recommended I try for a PARDON with FULL FIREARMS relief from the state to get my CCW permit back and firearms back I applied and 3 years later I was approved for my PARDON. I was now found innocent for this crime that I commited in the beach town but all of these charges still show up in my court record. You cannot get an EXPUNGEMENT for a pardon until after 5yrs after the PARDON was issued Md state law. So my question is do you think I am hopeless with getting a job in LE? No DQ's yet? knock on wood...but I have not started any real BI's yet? What do you think? any info on this would help ? or opinions????
Thanks

You can try , with the pardon and the elapsed time , you should have a shot.

PS You will now need to find a new screen name here. You are not currently nor have you been a police officer, your current name will be banned ( without prejuduice) and you can return as someone else but don't use any police "jargo" as part of the name.

Yeah, change your username, and your signature line. You're a security guard, not a cop, and not one of Baltimore' finest. Us LEO's don't like security guards faking the funk. That is my advice.

And stick with security. Your chances of getting hired are slim to none.

Your criminal history would disqualify you from being hired by my agency.

I know he's already gone but others may want to know this. A pardon is not a "not guilty" verdict, as this numbnuts thought it was. A pardon is something handed down to either shorten or lessen a punishment.

MCSAP, a site moderator, handled it quite well IMO. No need to pile on. again, IMO.

By the time I finally posted that message, I noticed MSCAP had just posted his. You would notice that if you saw the 2 minute time frame delay in our posts. Thanks for your humble opinion... :rolleyes:
