Our county jail is harder to get on than many PD’s, which gives the recruiters heartburn. Every agency is different.

BOP is very picky about things all the way down to your credit history and your family tree. State & County DOC’s you can probably get by with it.

I just applied with the local jail in WI. and have a concern about 5 years ago I got a disordely conduct fine. This was only a city ordinance violation not a misdemeanor or felony. I asked the HR person and they said it wont matter. but does this sort of thing matter in other areas such as the BOP and ect?
