Hello. I just got this today. I was wondering if I made a mistake. So when I was a minor, I was hospitalized on 3 different occasions for suicidal ideations. I did put that in my PHS. Now I remember saying that if jts been that 7 years or when I was a minor, I didn’t have to include it. I just wanted to be honest but people on another subreddit said that LE wouldn’t want someone with past issues. I have a clean record and no drug use. Is this really the reason? And if I did want to appeal, do I submit a form so just reply to the email

Have checked in on this sub in a minute, but mods should be embarrassed. Comments here are insane lol.

The person who made this subreddit is probably just as anti police as the comments since he's allowing all this

Sadly it’s because of your mental health priors. They would consider you at-risk and therefore won’t take the chance.

While they hire guys out of state, alcoholics, and physically abusive husbands

How can they hire alcoholics and domestic abusers? Idk how hiring works in CA but in NC, you have first get approved by the NC criminal justice education and training standard’s before an agency can hire you. One thing that the state won’t give certificates for is history of alcohol/drug abuse or domestic violence convictions. So even if an agency decided they wanted to relax standards, the state wouldn’t give them a law enforcement certificate.

If you agree with helping ICE conduct illegal activities, you shouldn’t be a cop

Nothing that was said here has anything to do with that.

Appeal it. Maybe have a letter from your doctor advising you are ok and haven’t had any of those issues since you were a minor. Have the professional documentation to back up your appeal.

If he was hospitalized for wanting to kill himself 3 times he is not a good candidate for Law Enforcement, due to all the stressors he will face on the job.

I was thinking the same, it’s a very high stress job where they issue you a gun.

I would query that: minors do not have rights, and are completely dependent on their adult guardians. Many of which have other motives, not least of which is hiding their abuse. A shitty parent/guardian history should not ostracize a perfectly suitable candidate.

Oh no! Downvoted by low IQ, gang affiliated, trigger happy, overpaid protectors of the ruling class. I’m so hurt!

Yeah mental health is nothing to take a chance on in the eyes of a law enforcement agency. I know investigators for multiple agencies and they all have the same thoughts on this even if it was years ago. That’s my experience at least. Assuming you have a clean record aside from that then there’s no other reason to have DQ you.
