Since there are other PPs here, can you please weigh in on the other professions' self-regulation you are bring up. Doctors, for example, have licenses that are tracked from state to state with double-checks to ensure you can't just move to practice in a new area. If you try to get licensed in a new state, everything, even just patient complaints that were deemed without merit, follows you.

Are you all in support of a law enforcement licensure that is tracked across your entire career, which is used to evaluate fitness for duty of all LEOs before being hired somewhere new?[/quote]

Bringing this back up, as it got lost a few pages back. I don't believe I've seen an answer yet.[/quote]

It would not solve all of the problems but it would weed out several bad apples. [/quote]

Police are certified by the state.  How is that different than licensure?

In Maryland at least, Doctors are policed by other doctors -- the Maryland Board of Physicians.  Made up of.....doctors.   All the health boards are.

As I posted above, Major Cities Chiefs and IACP want a national database of sustained charges against police officers.   That would go a long way to help get rid of bad actors.  It's already coming out that these five Memphis officers, none of whom have more than 5 years on the department, have dirt in their past.  [/quote]
