LEO application

[Gunner]

I'll be graduating here in the spring and was looking at the applications for some Counties and saw parts where they want to list any Misdemeanors or felonies that you have committed, whether you were caught or not. Now I'm haven't committed any felonies or anything terrible but I'm human and young so I'm not perfect. What I have been told is to be honest and list anything you have done, it shows honesty and integrity. So my question is what types of stuff will bar you from being considered? Is there some sort of statue of limitations?

[stoner01]

Honesty is what they're looking for

It's a WIN-WIN question for their hiring process. If you admit to everything you did and they don't like something you listed they will wash you. If you lie and they find out they will wash you.

They recently reelected a dope smoking foreign queer to the office of the President of the United States.
You'll likely be ok.

What like you had sex with a 16 year old girl when you were 16?

That's legal. Age of consent in CO is 15.

Is it really? That seems young to me, but anything under 25 is young these days anyway so what do I know? It was 17 or 18 in different states when I was that age, and i'm only in my 30's.

Hahaha, that is exactly the thing that they are looking for. During my pre-interview the investigator asked me about sex with an under aged person, which my response was "No, no-way" but he clarified, even when you were a juvenile? My jaw dropped. Not chargeable due to the statute of limitations, but they are looking for complete honesty and total disclosure. You would be surprised at how many people disclose some sick stuff during those "interviews".

Exactly right.
