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.
Nope.
Contact a family law attorney.
Ask me a serious question.
I don't know why you would call the police for "noise and construction violations." If the neighbor is playing the stereo too loud, I'll just walk over and talk to him. If he is building something on his property that I don't like - well, that's my problem. It is HIS property and he can do what he wants to with it. Try talking to your neighbor and not calling the police for non-criminal matters.

Are women more likely to get taken advantage of when buying a car?
Each state has different laws. Refer to your state's laws. Google can help you find the official listing of laws for your state.
Depends on state law. Different states have different laws, so contact a local law enforcement agency.
Probably not.
In my experience, a significant number of transactions handled via Western Union are scams. Money sent through Western Union can be picked up anywhere in the world. So a person sets up a Craigslist ad (or wherever) and says he lives in New York, Atlanta, or wherever. However, he most likely lives outside the jurisdiction of the US - Europe, Africa, Asia. He can pick up the money anonymously at any Western Union and you never hear from him again.
Unfortunately, I have seen too many of these cases and none of them are ever solved.
Feel free to file a police report, but do not expect that you will ever get your money back.
