There have been no letters sent, no backgrounds done or redone as of Friday August 11th and never, ever ever in the history of the SPA has an MSP recruit class started 30 days after a previous class graduates. 79th RTT graduates Sept 22. Then 80th then begins Oct 23??? Check the letter again for the fine print that says "Made in China by the FuK Yoo Novelty Co." |

Public Safety Providing resources for law enforcement and public safety is an essential component in improving the quality of life for the Commonwealth’s residents. The Committee’s commitment to investing in public safety continues in fiscal year 2007. By distributing additional funds to the Massachusetts State Police, our 11 district attorneys’ offices, our 14 state and county sheriffs and both the State Police Crime Lab and the Chief Medical Examiner’s Office, this Committee takes a strong stance against the disturbing rise in violence the Commonwealth is experiencing. Massachusetts State Police To complete the Commonwealth’s three year strategic plan to maximize troop strength, the recommendations include $1.2 million in funding for a new State Police maintenance class. Knowing that gang violence is a growing concern, the Committee has also included $1.05 million to combat this serious problem in some of our neediest communities. |

"didnt pass the bg investigation?" "score better next time" lines... . Whats the matter Curious, got burned by a Trooper and didnt pass the BG invest? Score better next time!!

| Originally Posted by 94c I agree that Curious went a little overboard with that one. But I find it quite comical that there are troopers on this site that feels everyone wants to be like them. I've been around long enough to meet that type and am not impressed at all. On the other hand, I have many friends and acquaintances on the MSP. For those of you with the swollen heads keep on thinking how great you are. For the rest, be proud of your chosen profession. |
| Originally Posted by Curious EMT If you searched, you'de find that I have stated before I took the exam. That was back in the day when I knew nothing other than the beautiful uniforms and what I experienced at the SPA in the student trooper program. I scored a 90. Although I was told multiple times by many, including some active and retired troopers, that it was a decent scored, especialy considering it was my first LE test, and that a little practice will bring that up to an elegible score for the next test. The next test? BUT NO, at that point, I wanted to be a trooper, and i was sick to my stomach that I'd have to wait until the next time around to get it. Since then I have had the opertunity to learn a lot more about the department, and experience a lot of the members, to decide it certainly isnt what I want for a job in LE. ITS NOT WHAT I WANT! That very thought has been the basis of attack towards me from some of the resident troopers, hense my return hostility. "HE DOESNT WANT THIS UNIFORM? OH, MUST BE A 1-LEGGED WIFE BEATING FELLON! 'SCORE BETTER NEXT TIME BOY' 'PFFF MUST HAVE GOTTEN A TICKET ONCE FROM A TROOPER SUCKER!' " Troopers here are happy to degrade anyone that isnt one of them, but when an outsider attacks them, its another story? |
