Hire a lawyer.

In response to my previous question, I was also thinking about an engineering degree. Would that be useful also? I'm sure you don't get this enough, thanks for your service and all that you do. I wish there were more people like you in the world.

Asked by Jimmy over 11 years ago

An engineering degree would be of limited use to a police officer. If you like engineering, do that (it pays better and is a much safer occupation.) You can always be a reserve police officer on the weekends.

Sounds like you are in a bad spot. However, if you are unwilling to call the local police for assistance, I don't know what you expect anyone else to do.

Are the police taught to try and arrest armed criminals away from the public at all costs? For example, say the police have tracked a dangerous fugitive to a restaurant, would they wait until he leaves the restaurant to arrest him, or go right in?

Asked by Sam I over 11 years ago

Officers are trained to protect the public. Each incident is differerent, and the risk to the public could be greater by allowing him to leave the restaurant. For example, what if he is parked by the front door and has a bomb in the vehicle? It might be safer to take him down inside.

There is no way to control a situation and completely protect the public. That is an unrealistic, but common, view. Officers will take reasonable actions based on the information they have at the time.

I was wondering I am 16 and pregnant. I don't think It would be safe to keep my baby at home due to money issues. Is there anyway I can move out with getting caught up with the law in Missouri. I'm wanting to move in with my boyfriend.

I'd suggest contacting a family law attorney in your state.
