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.
I'm not sure I understand your terminology, but if you are asking if you and your friend could be assigned as partners at the same police agency, yes. However, this would not happen until both of you had a few years of experience on the job. No sergeant in his or her right mind would assign two inexperienced officers together.

Identifying yourself as a police officer is a felony in most/all states. Saying you rode with a police officer breaks no laws that I am aware of. Contact an attorney if you are really concerned about this one.

Offering protection from liability for people making a good faith effort to render aid at the scene of an emergency is a good idea. There are a lot of dirtbag attorneys who will sue anyone, including good people trying to do the right thing.
Requiring people to act, such as calling 911, when they observe something that is obviously criminal in nature makes sense - but, I always have reservations about these kinds of laws. In my opinion, they need to be narrowly written.

Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.

If an investigation was conducted, it sounds like a lack of probable cause existed. Probable cause is a legal burden that a law enforcement agency must meet before arresting someone.
Just because a parent hits a child does not mean the child is being abused. Reasonable corporal punishment is legal in many cases.
Strangulation is not likely to be considered reasonable. If you witness violence, you should call the local law enforcement agency.
Even if the state was to remove him from the house, it is exceptionally unlikely he would be allowed to live with you.
Share Answer: 
If no arrest was made, then there is no arrest record (at least regarding this incident.) Without the victim's cooperation, the officers probably were not able to establish probable cause to make an arrest.
Share Answer: 
It depends on the priority of the case and the technology used to recover and analyze the prints. If you already have a suspect, you can get a very fast match.
