Law Enforcement & Police - February 2007

smuggled contraband cleverly hidden inside the vehicle would you be allowed to keep it or get a reward for turning it in or get arrested for possessing it? I'm thinking either stolen jewels or drugs.

I tried to commit suicide a long time go when I was 16, I was really down in the pits because i thought i failed everything in school. I was admitted by my own choice to go to a mental hospital. I realize how stupid it was and if you asked me today i'd say your an idiot. When i admit it to the board, will that mean automatic disqualification or is there still a chance that they'll hire me. Oh, and I did see a doctor for several years after the incident and still do; maybe I'll use her as a referral

I live out in the Country and there is a horse trail riding business right a cross from me,so I can see everything.
I have just noticed that one of the mares ( who is fully pregnant) is being used as riding horse.
I think that you would have to be a total SAVAGE to ride the poor thing!
......A safe guess is that this savage who is sitting on her is at least over 150 lbs or 69kg or 10.7stone .....Very disturbing.
Does anyone know if this is common,normal stuff and not unusual?
And if this is totally unacceptable should i call the cops ???????.

I am fortunate that I live in a state where it is a felony to abuse poor innocent animals.

I don't want to make enemies with the neighbours...what should I do?

I'm most likely going to go to jail for 30 days for simply drinking. MC, I'm 20. We have news reports constantly bombarding us and politicians requesting huge budget increases to alleviate jail overcrowding. It seems this problem would be solved by simply reducing the amount of jail sentences and increasing the amount of fines. Marijuana, prescription drug and underage alcohol users could all be given fines and community service which would positively affect our community and reduce the load on our wallets through jail overcrowding. Why should we spend money isolating and ruining the lives of people with vices when we can make money and leave these "criminals" outside of the untouchable caste in civilized society.

Why do so many people think jail is an appropriate solution to such minor problems as marijuana, prescription abuse and underage (18-20) alcohol consumption. It's like trying to kill a fly with a shotgun. Way too harsh, way too arbitrary and way too unjust. This is law?

Is it better to teach a child how to safely handle a gun at a young age. Or is it better to hide guns from your kids untill they are 16 or so. If you hide them from your child then they will not know how it works if they find it, which could be dangerous. But if you teach them at a young age then they will know how to safley handle it when they do find it. You can of course keep your guns locked up and keep the key hidden, but even young kids are very smart and might be able to get to it even when it is locked up. What do you think?

A friend of mine's son asked me for a cell phone for Christmas, which I bought him. The phone was a razor phone I only added him a line to my current plan so it's only 9.99 a month & I share mintues with him. Note: I pay the 9.99 for the extra line. Here is the messy part, my friend is seperated from his son's mother but they are not divorced yet. Since December she has taken the phone from Jessi (the son) because of her being mad at his dad and not allowing Jessi to talk to his dad. It only lasted a few days and she finally gave it back to him. They got into a dispute last week and she took the phone from him again and this time my friend (Jason) asked for the phone back. She told him no that he isn't getting it back until the divorce was final but neither has filed yet. I need to know how I can get this phone back. I went to file a report at the Police Station but they said it was not needed that I needed to contact Magistrate Court...

...also an accomplished artist / illustrator, could he or she be arrested for drawing pictures of nude kids strictly from their (admittedly sick) imagination? I mean, just totally making it up, with no kids used as a model, and not working from an actual photograph. There would not be an actual victim, so how could it be child porn?

Yeah, I'd probably punch a hole through a sicko like that with my fist, but could the law do anything about them?

I was in London this weekend and saw a bodyguard with a female client walking through the City. As the pair passed me the bodyguard's lapel fanned open wide enough for me to see he was wearing a pistol in an underarm holster.

If this bodyguard is non-military, is it legal for him to be carrying a sidearm?

Any info on the relevant laws gratefully received- is it likely the bodyguard was working 'freelance'? Thanks

Does a probation officer help the offender find employment? Or what? Or do they just check up on the offender from time to time to time? What if the offender is a first time offender and is a model citizen? He would be a low priority and would not have to be monitored closely like some felons. This offender only has a misdemeanor.

The only thing that I am concerned about is my education background. First thing, is I had to redo a year in school because I was in the hospital a lot suffering from migraines which I've gown out of. When I went to military school, I had to leave in the middle of the year due to a incident; wasn’t criminal nor anything I did wrong it was someone did something wrong to me VERY WRONG, I wasn’t kicked out, I left on my own decision. Problem after is the incident destroyed my moral so I didn’t work as hard in school and left 2 schools, even tried to commit suicide. I know it was stupid; the time I got it together I was behind. So I worked for 2 years and than got my GED; I am now working on continuing my education like a criminal justice, weapon training, and hand to hand combat training. I am also paying for myself to go to the academy. I would like to keep my mouth shut about the incident, will this come up as an issue at all or will they be able to find out about it.

I went to visit him yesterday and he shows me a bulletproof vest, cables, and small metal boomerangs that he got.

He found this dumb police scanner weeks ago, now all he does is listen to it.

He thinks the cops don't respond quickly enough to the calls, and that he could do better.

He is also obsessed with Superheros like Batman and Spiderman.

He's getting really whacked out, and was even more inspired when he saw this story on the news:

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,2521...

I'm really worried he will put on a mask & take "his tools" to the streets himself any day now.

He's 30 years old, lives a stable life, no history of psychiatric illness, what is going on here?

What should I do?

got caught speeding on sunday night 49mph in a 30
Just pullled away from some traffic lights accelerated changed to second gear then slowed down again. as I was turning left into a carpark. Car only travelled 100m from a standstill

30 min later a cop pulled into the carpark and asked someone to get the driver of the subaru to move it into a parking bay.
As soon as I went to move the car he called me over and gave me the good old 3 points and 60 quid fine.

I dont know why he didnt just follow me and book me right away why did he wait so long
