Samus Aran | Metroid | raisedbybirds Canon background in law enforcement (if any!): Very young, Samus joined the Galactic Federation and proved to be quite the prodigy; quickly excelling in ranks to become a lead member of the Federation Police Force. The Federation's structure is FRUSTRATINGLY NEBULOUS at best, though it's implied that the Federation Police Force is a branch of the military, or that Samus floated between the police and military while she served. Either way, she duly has police and military experience, doing things from simple recon or civilian rescue to infiltrations, interrogation, making arrests, body guarding, etc etc. The paperwork side of it she's not a fan of, but she'll do her own if need be.
How would they get involved? She could easily fill the role of a Sergeant or Constable, but to be completely honest it'll be very circumstantial to see how long she lasts in a department that revolves around rules and regulations. If she's given the freedom to do things her own way (peace officer, security officer, special agent?), she'll probably be much happier with a job she'll be very good at, and most importantly, inclined to stay.
If that doesn't work out, Samus will still be very adamant about helping with JUSTICE, but instead she'll be playing vigilante space Batman about it and work from the shadows.
Probably breaking laws herself all over the place, oops.
