Hi everybody,
Just quit my job recently. I was a Bailiff at the Superior Court, State of Arizona, County of Maricopa . Interesting job (my Judge is on a criminal calendar), but I want to get into law enforcement outside of Arizona.
Actually, I'm taking a little time off to train so I can pass some tests up in Oregon. I am going to be applying at OSP at the start of the new year. Maybe Portland PD, and Multnomah County Sherriff's Dept. too.
I really like the site and I will be needing some sage advice and pointers. So I think I came to the right place!
Hope to talk to you soon!

Michigan is the best. As for where I work let's say I don't share that type of information on the internet to people I don't know.

No problem, didn't mean to pry.
I have relatives all over that state, some are trying to get me to move back.
I was born in Mt. Pleasant. I was just wondering if you had any ideas on good agencies to apply to.
Thanks

In MI you need to have an associates degree at the minimum and put yourself through the academy in order to become an officer.
I hear that Isabella county isn't a bad area and Mt. P isn't too bad if it wasn't for the college students. :p
Oh by the way I'm not a cop. Cops here are verified and they have "Verified LEO" over their Joined Date.pafindr
