    ALL FDLE special agents have prior LE experience. Rookies are not hired.

    You allegedly know of a person who had absolutely no prior investigative experience... and had no LE experience... and he was allegedly hired as a FDLE special agent?

    Congratulations graduates of Special Agent Training Class 35

    Thirty proud members of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Special Agent Training Class 35 graduated and took the oath of office in ceremonies held in Tallahassee.

    “Today is a proud day for FDLE,” said Commissioner Rick Swearingen. “Not only are we able to welcome this outstanding group of newly sworn special agents to our FDLE family, but we also celebrate the collaboration of our training efforts and commitment to FDLE’s fundamental values of Service, Integrity, Respect, and Quality.”

    The men and women in the class, many of whom are already law enforcement officers with years of experience, were offered 104 blocks of instruction, on 47 topic areas, over eight weeks which involved academic and tactical training to prepare them for FDLE’s many responsibilities.

    FDLE special agents are sworn officers with statewide authority to investigate and enforce Florida’s criminal laws. Special Agents assist the state’s criminal justice community by providing a variety of services including: identifying and investigating organized and multi-jurisdictional crimes; enhancing domestic security preparedness; collecting and disseminating criminal intelligence information; investigating public corruption; seizing illegally obtained assets; dismantling drug trafficking organizations; assisting in locating missing children; and providing protective services to Florida’s Governor and other dignitaries.

    We congratulate the Special Agent Training Class graduates and welcome them to the FDLE family.

    The norm is to hire those with experience, prior to allowing them to work on cases. However, if you have political connections, then....

    "The men and women in the class, many of whom are already law enforcement officers with years of experience"

    Typical FDLE smoke and mirrors BS. "Many of whom" does not mean ALL so of course they hire rookies. Then there's the Special Agent Trainee Program within FDLE that transforms analysts into special agents...that's the career route The Bodyguard/Commissioner took.

    The path to leadership and promotion is rarely blazed by hard working cops. Instead, it's blazed by political people with people skills. That's just the way it is. If you want to be a hard working street cop, then have at it -- but don't be surprised if it doesn't get you advancement within the agency. It's won't. Again, that's just the way it is everywhere -- not just FDLE -- but everywhere.

    The path to leadership and promotion within FDLE is blazed by political wannabes with a$$kissing and back stabbing skills. No need to disrespect street cops just because you think you're superior. You're not. Delusional perhaps, but not superior.
