Hello, I'm new to this subreddit so I don't know if this is where I'm supposed to post, but I have a question for a police case I started.

TLDR: I caught my brother-in-law on camera planting a recorder in my room multiple times, is this prosecutable? Please read below for more info.

Some backstory: People who reside in my home are me (mom), my three children (two of which who are minors), and my brother-in-law (adult) and his wife (adult). My ex husband used to reside in this home before being kicked out due to a social services case, for the protection of my children. In this same social services case, my brother-in-law and his wife were also barred from communicating with my children without my supervision because of their abusive language.

Ok, now the case. So, a few days after this social services plan was carried out, I found an audio recorder behind my TV. I immediately suspected my brother-in-law because of his past actions and behavior, but I wasn't sure of it. So, I did what I found to be the best course of action, which was hiding my phone in my bedroom to record who would enter and have contact with the recorder. I didn't just put this phone though. I placed my sons phone as well, to record what was happening behind the TV (to see the suspects hand grab the recorder). Needless to say, both phones captured the culprit that night in high resolution, and surprise surprise, it was my brother-in-law. He was caught by both cameras reaching behind the TV taking the recorder, twice.

So I just want to know from you guys, do you think that this will be prosecutable? If so, what will they charge him for, and what will the punishment be? Any comments or help is very greatly appreciated! Thank you so much in advance! 😊😊😊

Edit: yes I want him charged and gone out of the house, do I need to do a civil case for this? We co-own this house btw. I also cut down my question a lot.

Basically I'm planning to ghost a guy and cut all contact with him without telling him why. He doesn't know my address, but he knows my first and last name. Can he get the police to search my name and get them to find my address to do a wellness check on me simply because I ghosted him?

does anyone know if a taser can puncture a tire

I’ve been around LE for years, worked in complementary roles. After many talks with my wife, I think I want to apply for a few departments locally, especially since they all know me.

Do police departments have any use for a 40 yr old rookie? I’m physically fit, and a firearms instructor for 15 years. Any chance or did I miss my window of opportunity?

This is a safe place for humorous and asinine encounters for all types of law enforcement. Police international security, military, etc. I know you all come across all kinds and ask situations. #stupidcriminals #funnyhuman

I’ve been in healthcare for over 10 years and I’m really looking for a change. Any thoughts?

I'm curious

Anybody here carry the straight stick? Pros/cons opposed to the expandable?

Hello everyone, I just had my first interview with a department for non certified police officer and I was denied for one issue. I'd like to say I'm not mad but slightly sad. Everything was going great, I have no criminal record, only two warnings in my 10 years of driving, 0 court problems ext. But when they asked if I've used hard drugs and went through the list of all the types, I had told them that in the last five years I have tried mushrooms 3 times and nothing else. No heavy drugs, no Marijuana use, last time I did mushrooms was in 2022. I was instantly denied because they have a 5 year 0 tolerance policy for hiring. Is this the standard ? Will I not be able to get hired because of this?. I'm limited in my options because I don't have a college degree right now, I was interested in having the department pay for my education to do a criminal justice degree.

I just took my cvsa I think it went pretty well. How long does it usually take for me to advance to the next step which will be my medical e

My current agency wasn't everything I thought it'd be, but the only resources I had were curated public information released, and a recruiter that had never even worked in my division, that was willing to say anything to get bodies in the door. I thought I was moving to a bigger agency in a bigger city that had bigger pay and benefits in turn. What I found was a toxic culture causing high turnover and green leadership, that is on track to be the next superstars in national news for doing dumb shit. I left a great position with my previous agency that I liked, so I have some regrets.

So I started looking around at my local rural agencies, and narrowed it down to a handful of Sheriff's Offices. What is a smart way to go about actually getting a feel for these agencies before I put all my chips into their application process and moving back out to the sticks?

I know about ride-alongs being the obvious choice, but I wouldn't know what is smart to ask both the new and veteran staff, or even what to observe while I'm out there.

Hi all,

How is the NYS court officer background difference than NYPD, NYSP?

I heard NYS court office background are more “laxed” if so can you provide an example? And is there a polygraph involved during the background?

Thanks for any info

Hello, it is a dream to become a police officer here in Canada. The issue with me is I wasn't the most perfect person between the ages of 19-23ish. In between these years in 2017 | was put into a drunk tank due to a fight outside a bar, 2019 recieved a IRP(DU), 2021 i had guests over who fought eachother and police were called (I was detained for questioning as one person ran away like a coward). 2021 i was in a consensual bar fight where I got my ass whooped as well and police helped me get home. The dui is no longer of my record because of a lawyer and I received my license back within the same week of it happening.

Since then, in 2022 | enrolled myself into full time uni which then I finished my diploma up in 2023 and currently have 87 credits towards my degree which l've put it on hold as it's hard getting in classes as I also work full time. Keeping clean and trying be a better citizen as well!

I have had a stable job as a financial advisor at a bank for 3 years now.

I volunteer on a weekly basis at a community policing centre as well.

Just wondering what my chances would be like for RCMP or any other police agency across Canada. What are your thoughts and would do to improve yourself even more if you were in my shoes? Thank you

Hope it’s okay to post this here, I’m not really sure where else would have any idea what I’m talking about.

I don’t have a ton of info as I was just listening to it in the background. It may have even been posted by the police department involved.

But it was a sit down interview with police officers involved in the incident, as well as body cam footage. There was a fugitive in the woods, shooting police, it went into late at night, helicopters were helping police on the ground find the person. Some police were definitely shot, I’m not sure if anyone died. I believe they ended up getting him under someone’s deck/back step. I thought it was a really well done and would love to watch it again. Anyone have any idea what I’m talking about?
