Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
If you know where she is, go get her. If another adult is interfering with the custody of your child, that could be a crime & feel free to call the local law enforcement agency.
If she refuses to come home and you don't know where she is, you can report her as a runaway.

I'm not sure what you mean by "rural area of the city." If you mean out in the country somewhere, how far would you expect to drive to find a lit area? Don't expect a trooper to follow you for miles just to look for a well lit area.
If you are in a city, you should probably pull into a parking lot/gas station whenever available to begin with.
You can ask an officer anything, but he/she doesn't have to agree to honor your request.

In what context? If an officer is taking enforcement action, then at a reasonable time he or she should identify him- or herself in a reasonable manner. That will likely include a badge and ID card.
If someone knocks on your door and asks to speak with you it is certainly reasonable to request to see identification. Call the local law enforcement agency and confirm the officer's identity if you have any doubts.
Asking an officer to show you his or her badge in the middle of a fight, chase or in the middle of some other dangerous situation might not be feasible. It is all situationally dependent. Unfortunately, everone looks for a simple black and white answer, but life's not that easy. Reasonableness is the key to everything.

Depends on why you were not hired. Assuming you have a clean record, good job history, and don't drool on yourself during an interview, then yes. ;)
If you have lied on an application, have criminal convictions, or come off as an arrogant SOB in an interview, then no.

Why have there been so many 15-2 upsets, but no 16-1's?
Checking the California Dept of Fish and Wildlife website, it looks like anyone 16 or older must have a license to fish. I did not see a reference to ages younger than 16. In the sane world, a 13 year old should be able to fish by him or herself. California, however, has some very bizarre views on what people should be allowed to do. So, I'd recommend contacting them directly.

Unethical behavior is not acceptable under any circumstances.
Share Answer: 
It depends on what state the story happens in. Murder is a state level offense in most cases, so there is no real uniformity from state to state. In many states, a life term with some opportunity for parole later in life is the maximum sentence.
