Personal Narrative: A Career As A Criminal Investigator

With all the jobs out there in the world, how does anyone decide what they want to do with their lives? Most of the time this is the first question young people ask themselves when they are trying to figure out what they want to major in at college. This question caused me a lot of confusion about my possible future career. The career I finally choose, like many other young adults, was law enforcement, to be a police officer. In the following paragraphs, I will describe the reasons for my choice, along with the effects that my education and training have on my goal of becoming a police officer.

There are multiple choices that some people could do or go into for a career of their choice. Some of those choices can have different requirements like different degrees for example. One choice that people could choose would be to go into criminal justice. This would be a good career to go into because their are multiple job opportunities in the criminal justice system. Some of these careers could go from being a cop to being a homicide detective.

“The Sheriff´s office has issued a mandatory evacuation order for your area.” A phone call like that will get you out of bed in a hurry, and it’s something you don’t get used too. I grew up in Ramona, California, a small rural town with not much to offer. Mountains, farm animals, hillbillies and fires… all a part of Ramona.

For this question, I would like to use a combination of my real world experiences with probation officers and what I have read in this unit's read section. While working in the Correction's field, I have been introduced to many interesting people. A few of these people have been probation officers that conduct classes for the inmates inside of our facility. Now we all know that in the real world the book is not something that is always followed as it should be. In the perfect scenario, everything would be done by the book and have the perfect ending. However, this is sadly something that does not happen often. Many probation officer that I have spoken with tell me stories of backstabbing among the ranks, close calls, and even horror stories.

FBI somehow have hacked the San Bernardino attacker's IPhone without the help of Apple. The FBI used brute force attack which is a method in which they teat out all possible passcodes without erasing the content in the phone. It only took the FBI 26 minutes to crack this phone wich is good because they could possibly stop terror attacks. I personally, am not afraid that the FBI has power and servalence, I am afriad of how much power the FBI has and how it can abuse it. When the FBI has power, its very hard to take it away from

I currently have an Associate degree in Criminal Justice and have attended Professional Military Education (PME) courses in Security Forces Apprentice and Security Forces Leadership courses. Moreover, I was selected to attend the MWD Handler and Kennel Master/Trainer courses at Lackland Air Force Base (AFB) Texas. I have also attended the Non Commissioned Officer Academy Management Course at Petersen AFB, Colorado that enhanced leadership capabilities. Lastly, I was selected to attend Yuma Joint Forces Regional K9 Training with U.S. Marine/Navy in Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona in preparation for combat mission in

My decision to become a Criminal Justice major was not a simple one. My high school cross country coach was also a Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Officer who told me that I had a very “police-like” attitude, which ignited a spark in my brain. Initially I thought it would be pretty cool to chase people down, shoot guns, and have my picture plastered on the front page of every newspaper for taking down the biggest drug cartel in the United States although my mind was still set on majoring in Athletic Training.

My second week at the court house was long but eye opening. I learned so much about the criminal justice system. I leaned that each procedure and each role a person play is crucial to someone life. On Tuesday, the day was short but still alarming. I came in and shadow one of the clerks as she was preparing for court. As the clerk was setting up for court I remember trying to recognize which department is what on each traffic ticket. I felt confuse, but the clerk show who was trooper, SUNY New Paltz police, and state police/ She remind that I will eventually learn who is who and how to set up for court. I felt better about what she said and I was ready for court. I notice that court will be short today because we did not have many cases. I began

Crime analyst are also called upon to assist local statewide law enforcement jurisdictions beat and shift configurations and providing data based inquiries and information support for a department's CompStat process. Other duties may include preparing statistic reports, geographical maps on demand, providing information for court presentations and answering questions from the public and local press.

I am sorry, I know that by now you probably see an email from me and think, ‘oh my gosh, is she ever going to stop?’ I will, but I need ALL the gory details before I can. It may seem insensitive of me to need this information, but I’m his wife and I wasn’t there, and while I realize that you were not there either, I’m sure that you have a much better understanding of exactly how it happened and to be quite frank, I’d like to be enlightened.

As a Correctional Officer for the State of Colorado, I am motivated and tempted every day to promote but do not currently have the degree to move further into my career. I would like to increase my knowledge and experience in my career through law enforcement, but the only way to guarantee that I excel with experience and education depends on my motivation into evolving a Bachelor’s degree. My plan is to follow through my ideas and turn them into my dream coming true. I lost track of education and motivation when I was at Colorado State University of Pueblo in 2010, not realizing what I was throwing away at the time. Knowing that I was incorrect and foolish to get rid of something that is critical in life has made me want to complete something that was broken and make it whole again.

I am a recent graduate and licensed attorney from the University of Iowa College of Law and I am writing to apply for your open Assistant County Attorney position in the Woodbury County Attorney’s Office. During law school I gained extensive legal experience in Iowa with a focus on criminal law. I worked in the Des Moines Adult Public Defender’s Office, which gave me valuable insight into how criminal defense attorneys approach a case. More recently, I worked in the Linn County Attorney’s Office. I was able to manage my own caseload and further develop my trial skills. Working for the Linn County Attorney’s Office validated my purpose for going to law school, to become a criminal prosecutor. I thoroughly enjoyed working as a prosecutor

As explained by Roberts (2012), doctorate programs often require the completion of a dissertation in order to demonstrate that you are capable of planning, conducting, writing, and defending an original research study. However, throughout the course of completing my dissertation I am expecting to experience a number of high and low points. As I begin my dissertation journey, I must admit that I am quite terrified, which is likely stemming from my uncertainty as to what I want do my dissertation on. Personally, I am having a difficult time choosing a topic that I find interesting, in addition to considering the feasibility, whether the topic is researchable, and ensuring it is aligned with the proper guidelines so that the research proposal will be accepted.

My passion for Forensics did not start from debate; however, it was the topics that the class debated about. The topics are about current events that are happening around the world and I have a passion for news and controversial issues. My interest in Forensics grew as we discussed relevant issues from both perspective allowing me to keep an open mind about issues in everyday life as well.

“If you don't mind my asking why exactly have you come to this manor and interrupted our peace and quiet,” he said. “Oh dear don't listen to him hes just a cold hearted and rude old man,” she said. “Well I'm a homicide detective with the NOPD, and I am looking for Edward Campbell,” Samantha said. As she is being pulled forward Samantha introduces herself to the maid and butler who both appear very uninterested in her. Patrick and Julia looked at one another, and the old man began to formulate a lie that they could tell to the woman before them. “Why exactly are the local authorities look for our master,” Patrick stated
