Criminal Justice F.A.Q.

Q: What if I have a criminal record or moving violations, can I still work in the criminal justice system?

Individual agencies have certain disqualifying violations in their background requirements. Convictions involving drunk driving, drug possession or domestic abuse are serious charges and can be disqualifying factors. Certain moving violations resulting in suspensions, revocations, or disqualifications can also be disqualifying factors. Each individual agency will evaluate other violations based on their merit.
