i don't know the details, but this seems not to apply to licensed police officers.
Johannes Mehserle, for instance, was convicted of involuntary manslaughter while on duty as a BART cop, but it's my understanding that he has continued to serve in a new police department.
obviously, this is atrocious.
- yardie 12y agoAFAIK, Mehserle is still unable to become a LEO due to his conviction and loss of appeal [1]. Of course, he still might work for a police department as parking enforcement or receptionist. But he'll never be legally able to hold a gun ever again.
