Question

Can i be a private investigator or forensic scientist with a felony in ohio.?

Answer 1

if it would require you to handle a weapon then no, a felon would not be able to be issued a weapon, and most cities would not hire a felon to work within a crime lab

Answer 2

nitac123, Most questions are best handled by a private investigator. They are trained and spent a lot time learning to be able to help many types ofpeople. Try calling a Ohio private investigator since they are helpful. http://www.privateinvestigatorsguide.com...

Answer 3

Unfortunately no. No police officer of any sort can have a felony in their background. That doesn't mean you can't, because I leave in Texas and things are more stricter here. I would apply anyway. It could also depend on the felony you have. Hopefully it's not running away from the police, just apply and maybe the cards will play out for you.

Answer 4

No..

Answer 5

Nope, because no felons can posses a firearm even if it was for larceny.  But even if you did not need to carry a firearm they probably would still not hire y, but they might if it was for larceny or something white collar like that.
