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.
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.
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.

I'm not about to make a judgement call on what is or is not a violation of some state's laws on cyber bullying. However, I would encourage you and everyone else to (1) ignore other people's hurtful words and (2) if you don't have anything nice to say, say nothing.
If you are asking will your husband take you seriously, I don't know. Probably not. It sounds like he has a lack of regard for the safety of himself and others. Anything you say is unlikely to get him to change his behavior.
If you are asking will the police dispatcher take you seriously, of course they will.
