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.
Unethical behavior is not acceptable under any circumstances.

I'm afraid I don't know anything about your friend or the specific circumstances.

Wrong or illegal? Different states have different laws and I am not an expert on all of the laws across all of the states.
My personal opinion is that anyone in a public place can be photographed and/or video taped. My opinion does not hold the weight of law.
I've had lots of people photograph and video me while on the job. Its never bothered me, except when they are interfering with my job. In one instance a man had been run over by a car and was laying in the street. These morons with their camera phones were trying to record the man bleeding and in doing so were blocking the roadway, preventing an ambulance from pulling up. While I personally think their actions were distasteful, my only issue was that they were preventing the man from getting medical attention. I encouraged them to get onto the sidewalk and we didn't have any more problems after that.

If you buy an item that turns out to be stolen, do you have to turn it over to the police?
Online fraud cases are pretty easy to trace and prove, even when people use VPNs, proxies, etc. Offline fraud is even easier. Don't expect me to tell you how.

Most frequent question: "Shoot anybody?"
The most annoying thing people do is loudly announce "I didn't do it!" when you walk into any store or business in uniform. The folks making these announcements seem to think it is both original and funny. What they don't realize is it is hardly original: I probably would hear it 10 times a day. At that point it is about as funny as a toothache.

Seriously, who writes these questions...? If you want to have a backpack with images of marijuana all over it, knock yourself out. I always like the folks who advertise their recreational activities.
If you want to decorate your backpack with actual "weed all over," be my guest. Depending on where you are in the world, that could be anything from completely legal to a capital offense (death penalty). Laws inside the US vary, and unless the actual marijuana was significant in quantity, you are probably looking at a misdemeanor arrest.
