Posse membership???

I was always curious why Police Officers, Sheriff's Office Law Enforcement, etc:.. don't become U.S. Federal Marshal, F.B.I., Homeland Security, and others, Posse Members. I am further curious why retired or honorably discharged Military Personnel don't set up or become Military Posse Personnel to keep their feet wet. Just a thought.

There could be types of Posse Members.

1. Non-L.E.O.'s and,

2. L.E.O.'s.

1. People who are allowed to check up on Registered Offenders and look to see if they are Compliant or Non-Compliant. They may or may-not have the authority to place an individual into, "Custody", instead of "Arrest". They might just be allowed to locate these people and submit reports to the U.S. Marshal's Service's Posse Field Offices. Then these Offices would decide the best course of action if any is needed.

2. A "L.E.O. Posse Member". Imagine these L.E.O.'s can use their, "Posse Status", while on duty as City, County, State and Federal, "L.E.O.'s". They could place people into "Custody, and then the individual could be released or could then be, "Arrested", based on the findings from the, "Custody Confinement Protocal".
