Ask a Cop? False information: Thanks Nicolette
My son was born in February of this year. His father & I have been together since before I got pregnant & are still together now. But there is a guy, that I have never had sex with, going around telling everyone that he is my son's father. Can I or is there a way I can sue him for spreading false information like that?
Ask a Cop? What were your first days as a cop like? Thanks: Jesse
I am trying to get hired - I have studied all the books and tests and materials. I have done a few ride alongs at the department I would like to work with but the one thing they never teach you is what the first days, week, or years are like after you are hired. What issues did you have during your first few days, weeks and years? Eye Opening? Depressing? How does it affect your personal life?
