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.
It can be. Time away from the family, physical danger and dealing with other people's problems are just some of the downsides to the job.
Share Answer: 
Maybe. Are you an adult and can you show the property in dispute was clearly owned by you? There are too many factors for me to make any kind of determination on what you might be able to do. Why don't you got talk to a local police officer?

Texas Rangers for non-patrol. LAPD-type for patrol (though with two shoulder patches)

Did your career blow up after you performed on the Tonight Show / Conan?
Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.
Share Answer: 
You want to be extremely careful when getting involved in other people's affairs. You are only getting one side of things, and she is probably not giving you the entire story.
If you honestly believe that her mother is abusive, then call the police. If, on the other hand, you think that it is just a case of a teen who doesn't want to follow house rules, then do not call the police.
You certainly cannot keep her from her mother.
Share Answer: 
I don't know. You should pop in to the local department, introduce yourself and ask. They might even have a citizens academy where they go over all of the department's functions.
