I was just wondering seeing that I wear Body Armor and My uniform shirt always has print however I didnt notice this officer wearing any. Just wondering why??

[boisepolice]

@Epscadets The Boise Police Department does not have a body armor requirement. It is listed as a prefered practice, but it is not a requirement. Each officer is given the option, and provided armor, but it is up to them to guage the hazards they face on a day to day basis and make that final determination!

That particular uniform is reserved for the Boise Police School Resource Officers who serve the youth of our city. Thanks for asking!

[scourgefe1nd]

are they like, real cops?? do they have any authority over students or is it like a safety officer.

[boisepolice]

@scourgefe1nd Boise Police SRO's are fully certified Boise Police Officers. The Position of SRO in the City of Boise must be earned by veteran officers who have already been patrolmen for a period of time!
