Misc. Notes
This attribute is similar to the GFIPM attribute (gfipm:2.0:user:SwornLawEnforcementOfficerIndicator), but cannot be asserted in delegated use cases. The GFIPM attribute can be asserted for support staff acting on behalf of a SLEO, while this attribute requires the user to be a LEO, although it is more flexible in that investigators not certified to make arrests can still assert the attribute.
