What steps can I take to get off the blackballed list from POST in Georgia, I've been denied three times ref to my certification being reinstated?

I love law enforcement and alot of high ranking officials and several Chief's I've spoken with have informed that the punishment is excessive.  I severed my country proudly for over twenty-one years retired as a First Sergeant and attended many leadership courses in the military as well as in the law enforcement field and it hurts me to the core about my treatment.

Not enough info to answer, even if I was familiar with GA POST procedures, which I am not.

Skeleton profile, first post, no introduction. Something is wrong here.

"Blackballed" is a red flag for me.  Not enough information and no introduction.  

Hmmmmm..... a little google search makes me suspicious.

Georgia POST does not simply revoke one's POST certification "Willy Nilly". There needs to be substantial misconduct. They have to perform an in-depth investigation, and then revoke only if certain criteria are met. Essentially it's like when a lawyer is Dis-Barred.

Everyone has the right to appeal the revocation, and the right to petition for reinstatement. Chances are that it will not be reinstated though, due to the level of misconduct required to get revoked in the first place.

It leaves one to wonder,doesn't it?No response to our responses.??

I'd say leave the thread  for about one more day. 

In my state, to get POST revoked, a LEO normally has to commit the equivalent of a felony (or commit a felony) to be revoked, simple misdemeanors typically won't get one revoked.

You've got one too many slashes in there, Cat. I did manage to find what you wanted to post anyway. Here ya go:

This would explain a lot, if its the same person. HOWEVER, if it's the same person; he sure as he!! didn't do 21 years in the Military (unless he enlisted at age 13).

Methinks the OP needs to enlighten us a little.....  just sayin.

I believe this one is from Connecticut. I found one by googling Georgia Police Officer with the OPs' last name and was able to come up with an appeal to a conviction of a Gwinett County Deputy. Either way if the OP is either one of these individuals, it does make one wonder.

I have reason to believe (sorry, I'm not elaborating) that the OP's profile name is unrelated to his real name. The results from the Google searches on Stinson will not yield any relevant information.

I doubt the OP will be back, but 2 days may not be enough time to be certain.
