If I were to be physically assaulted by a group of guys as a junior at school, suffer from a back eye, minor concussion, and a cracked rib, along with we bruising, what would happen if I reported it in a police station with my boyfriend?

Asked by Jada about 12 years ago

It would be investigated as any other crime.

I am curious on how this was not reported when you were at the hospital.

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 about 12 years ago

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

In other words, if anyone with a license can carry a gun, that gives them the power to kill people. Even if they only use their gun for the right reasons, they still have so much power without necessarily that much training.

The "power to kill" people does not come from a concealed carry permit. If you believe that, you are very mistaken on the law - both natural and statutory.

I am writing a screenplay and I have a few questions:

1. Can a suspect of a murder case that took place 4 years earlier, look at the crime scene photos & the crime scene evidence?

Thanks in advance

Asked by Edwurd about 12 years ago

If the case is still open (unsolved), no. A detective may show some piece of evidence or a photo of the crime scene to the suspect during an interview to get some type of response or information about the crime. Other than that, no one outside of the officers working the case, medical examiner and prosecutor are looking at the evidence.

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 about 12 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.
