Could my husband affect me from becoming a police officer?

I would like to become a police officer and I been married for four years now and my huband has been in trouble with the law about 10 years ago will that affect me when the police department does a background check? I have never been in any kind of trouble.Could my husband affect me from becoming a police officer?
they shouldnt hold someone elses problems against you. if it was ten years ago you should have nothing to worry about. even if it was yesterday.. he did what ever it was he did, not you.Could my husband affect me from becoming a police officer?
yes it can and it would not be discrimination if they did. The department will want to know what kind of associations you have with family, friends, etc. If they do background and all your friends are crack dealers then you aren't going to get the job. Most police applications request identifiers on all family members as well.
On the record, they can't discriminate like that...however, depending on what kind of trouble he got himself into, they will definitely make a note of it ';off the record';. So officially they can't, but unofficially, you know they might.
No they check yours not him. If they did deny you it would be discrimination!!!
