Police departments across the country are hiring green card holders or those with legal work permits as officers.
On top of that, while most departments require that a police officer be a U.S. citizen, more and more agencies are trying to change that law, either claiming a need to fill their ranks or connect with an increasingly diverse populace.

This is nuts.
crazy and not good at all,
How can immigrants become cops ? They are crimminals because they are in America illegal !
OBAMA is making The Move towards SOCIALISM !!! Tearing down all of Our Ways of LIFE in AMERICA.
what an oxymoron, but then so is this administration! and the liberals and democrats cheer obama on! $#%&!@* had fans too….
nothing like illegal cops enforcing illegal laws!
I agree with Mike Hess
I’d like to see actual examples of this.. not just rumors. On the other hand, with the way the nation has turned on cops, it may be NECESSARY to hire illegals. I know I am glad I am retired.
Law abiding immigrants?
Police corruption in Mexico is currently one of the greatest challenges facing Mexican law enforcement agencies and politicians. Corruption has a long-standing role in Mexican history and culture. Corruption in the Mexican police can take many forms. It ranges from taking bribes to ignore crimes to active participation in criminal activity such as extortion, drug-trafficking, and $#%&!@*$#%&!@*ination. The Mexican police are notorious for their corruption that is evident on all levels of law-enforcement, local and federal. Many Mexican police officers enter law-enforcement not because of a genuine interest in policing but because of ulterior motives. Some join to escape criminal pasts in other states, others join to earn some money before moving onto other business ventures, while others join to increase their criminal networks, allowing them to boost drug and crime spread, connections, and distribution.Go figure!
