The application process of working as a Police Officer, Correctional Officer and Probation Officer are different due to the fact that each plays an important role in the criminal justice branch. I will be discussing each of the positions and the hiring process of Los Angeles, and Riverside in California.

I was in shock, total and complete shock. 30 minutes ago, my biggest concern was whether I need to buy milk for the Oreos i had at home, and now I 'm being arrested and charged with three felonies. But the universe was looking out for me. As they are waiting for the paddy wagon, their supervisor pulls up and orders them to let me go. All three officers immediately take offense with her order, and they start listing all the charges they are going to press and how I pretty much deserve to go to…

Officers In the United States of America “You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney.

With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?” If you aren’t careful your Miranda Rights will be read to you in a manner in which you will be subjected to an arrest. Americans violate laws…
The data also points at the idea of civilizing officers or what some call a civilizing effect, meaning that when on camera you’re more likely to think before you act (Sierra-Arevalo, 2015). It’s just the idea that if you know you’re on camera, then you’re more likely to act more appropriate, knowing that the footage could be use against in cases of misconduct (Sierra-Arevalo, 2015). Police body cameras just better improve relations with suspects and members of the community, showing then that…
Tonight I rode with Officer Archibald and it was a little different than usual because they made this rule that the night officers had to stay on the campus they were assigned instead of floating between all of them. So we were on Busch and Livingston most of the night and it was funny because Officer Archibald was telling me how he just got back onto nights and was on day for a year. It was funny because I was going to do a day shift that Tuesday. So, I asked him what I should expect from the…
As our Public Relations officer, Angie Chacko, was involved in every aspect of our chapter including the Honors in Action topic. She was not involved in the research process of the project, but she did help deliver the information to our members and people outside of the chapter. When our chapter set our four step action plan to raise awareness of our HIA topic, Angie took the initiative to spread the word. Even before our brochures containing our research were made, Angie kept a communication…
After analyzing the case and discussing the tensions with my team’s officer representative, we decided that protecting one’s personal honor and integrity should be what the division officer should focus on the most. Another topic that was brought up was the fact that since the sailors were in school, the blame cannot be put on them for not getting the work that needed to be done completed. Although it is essential to trust the senior enlisted in the division, in the constitutional paradigm…
Everyone has dreams. Dreams for fame, riches, or even to change the world. If you look around, at one point everything was a dream that someone eventually accomplished. During my time of enlistment, it has become apparent that my dream is to become an Army Officer. The responsibilities entrusted with Officership is constructed with Competence, Conduct, Commitment, and Expertise. Competence is derived within the second verse of the Non-Commissioned Officers creed. I believe the ability to…
mission at hand. As an officer, the relation I hold with my noncommissioned officer counterpart will influence the successfulness of our training and operations. First impressions are of the utmost importance, and that first counseling session will set the stage between myself and my platoon sergeant as our first potential formal sit-down. Understanding the importance of the relationship between a platoon leader and their platoon sergeant, I have reservations about my ability to conduct an…
