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.

is it ok for women to hit men? what are some consequences?

Asked by Maggie almost 11 years ago

Women are no different than men when it comes to the crimes of battery. In other words, any unjustified touching can result in going to jail.

well my son is 14 i got him a dirt bike i live in nj west new york 07093 is it illigal for him to ride it at the park during summe

Asked by hector about 11 years ago

I don't know, but NY and NJ sure do like to tell people what to do.  It seems just living is either illegal or nearly taxed to death in those states.  You should probably check with the local jurisdiction.

My wife gave our old car to my brother-in-law. But I want the car and the registration is under her name. How could I get the car? We are still married and he didn't want to give me the car. Should I report to police as stolen car?

Asked by Shwange almost 11 years ago

I don't know if you should.  You can certainly call the police and talk to them about your circumstances.

Asked by Lily almost 11 years ago

You can ask, but don't expect to get a positive reaction.

 

During the police officer application, if a person admits to a past crime they were not caught doing would they get arrested?

Asked by InquiringMind about 11 years ago

It depends on a number of factors including jurisdictional authority and the statute of limitations.

If a person happened upon a murder crime scene, called 911, and stayed until the police arrived. Would an officer take that persons statement at the crime scene or bring them back to the station and take the statement there?

Thanks in advance.

Asked by edwurd almost 11 years ago

At the scene.

If the caller was believed to have more involvement than just stumbling into a crime scene, investigators might want to interview the person at the PD so the statement can be recorded on video.  However, unless the person is under arrest, transporting the subject to the PD must be voluntary.  If the subject does not want to go, officers would have to collect the statement on scene.
