What is the best way to hire an LEO for a few hours?
Im going to be having my wife served divorce papers as she gets off work. i basically want an LEO at my house out of sight to act as a witness when she inevitably comes screaming home acting fucknut insane. She absolutely will be screaming threats about all kinds of stuff and I would like an LEO to just be waiting when she does come.

Thank you for your question, BearRestorationABQ! Please note this subreddit allows answers to law enforcement related questions from verified current and former law enforcement officers as well as members of the public. As such, look for flair verifying their status located directly to the right of their username.
While someone without flair may be current or former law enforcement unwilling to compromise their privacy on the internet for a variety of reasons, consider the possibility they may not have any law enforcement experience at all.

Your local Sheriff’s Office should have a civil process division they should be able to either help you out or point you in the right direction.
Usually Sheriff’s Department, and it’s also best practice that you not be in any way involved in serving her. That’s their job. Barring that, consider a private security or investigation company that hired retired and off-duty cops.
Buy a camera, it’ll be cheaper and its observations are more valuable in court.
You can’t even hire a LEO directly at my agency; it’s against SOP and can get the deputy fired.
You can call the Sheriff’s Office or Police Department. They’ll put you in contact with an officer that coordinates these kind of side jobs, which can pay the cop between $30-45 an hour.
Not sure if I’m too late but my agency will do a “security standby” where we will just show up and basically keep peace and nothing occurs. It’s basically a “call for service” for us so we aren’t off duty or anything. Try your local PD or SO and see if they do that instead of hiring one.
