Answer 1

You want a job at the City Controllers Office.  They investigate complaints of illegal government activities.  Such as illegal spending, corruption, abuse of official status, fraud etc...  Many cities have internships where you can get some training about the office and it's positions.  They even hire student workers.  You will need computer skills, report writing skills, training in law enforcement and other requirements depending on the city.  Your best bet is to go to your city website and contact someone in the Controllers Office.  There is also a State Controllers Office too.  Good luck it's a great job!

Answer 2

First Assumption- You intend to go to college. If so you should major in Business( accounting) and minor in Criminal Justice. You should try to gain fluency in a foreign language. Spanish, Russian or Chinese (Mandarin). You might wish to become a forensic accountant, letting you delve into suspect corporation books. You could work for the local DA's office, the state or for law firms that represent Pltf. or Def. business. If no college get fluency in a foreign language(really you will need college) You can seek a position with a Congressmans  or Senators office but again I reiterate you will need college. The fact you are young is immaterial as very often we decide on a career at an early age and follow through on it. Good Luck
