I know I would make a great detective or PI. I would love to work for the police, but without becoming an officer, I wonder if it is even possible. What do I need to break into this field? If it doesnt seem likely, what other similar fields would you reccomend?

To work for the police you have to become a Police Officer. There are already too many wannabe’s around and we dont need another. Go to college and continue from their. You can also go into private investigations, but without a police background, even thats hard to do well in. Good luck.
