They'll check our status if we're marked out on a call or something, but that's it. Although we don't usually have hours go by without either radio or MDT traffic so the dispatchers know we're still moving around.

Pretty much this. Status checks only if marked out. However all our cruisers have a "Automatic Vehicle Locator" (read: GPS) so dispatch always knows the cruiser's location when signed on.

Holy poo poo. The car must have had a gas leak when that tazer went off, no other idea what could cause something like that.

Since the comments mention Arsonist, I'm going to guess it has more to do with flammables inside the car and the guy in the car setting it off.

I love that you guys still use HD bikes, do any departments use BMW, Honda or the like?

We have a marked crotch rocket (I think it's a Kawasaki) that was used for traffic enforcement back in the late 90's. It's now in our department's museum.

City of Fresno PD uses BMW's.

Edit: Or they were when I was out there a few years ago.

Some Fairfax fire fighter has reportedly attempted to join ISIS and has been openly calling for the murder of police officers (primarily) and some other government officials.

He's still on the job tho because the union is apparently pretty good and the county can't do a thing about it.

This is the same guy who made news a while back for claiming targeted racial discrimination by other fire fighters after "KKK" was spray painted on the station house dumpster. Turns out he was the one who did it.

People are flipping their poo poo over this.

According to the email I saw from the local FF union, he's not a member and they're not supporting him.

Edit: The thing that's driving me crazy is that the powers that be of both the FF and PD are making a huge go of "OMG, SOLIDARITY!! DONT LET THIS ONE GUY DRIVE US APART!!!!" PD and FD has always had a great relationship and the troops on both sides both know it's just 1 nutjob. The brass is acting like this is going to plunge the county into a public safety civil war.

Seriously, just fire the guy and move on.

Welp, Fairfax County indicted that (former) officer that shot John Geer.

It was a bad shoot.

Not surprised he is no longer employed read: fired and not surprised he was indicted.

However I'll be surprised if they get a murder conviction.

If you read the released reports, pretty much everyone on the scene rightfully threw the officer under the bus and then backed it over him a second time.

Is that a job that is typically only available via inside promotion?

I ask because I work as a private investigator now. But if I'd have to work a patrol car for a few years first then I'm better off just finishing my degree and then applying at the federal level.

Noslo posted:

My understanding is that there's a push at the federal level to recruit more techies, which is what I'm banking on since I do computer wizard stuff.

I'm not sure if my local LE even has a computer crime/forensics department, which is another reason I'm looking at moving to NoVA once I have my degree.

My department has an overworked, understaffed computer forensics section and you need at least 10+ years before you're even considered. And that's IF they have an opening.

Ask me how I know! :v:
