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 depends on the situation.

Probably not.
In my experience, a significant number of transactions handled via Western Union are scams. Money sent through Western Union can be picked up anywhere in the world. So a person sets up a Craigslist ad (or wherever) and says he lives in New York, Atlanta, or wherever. However, he most likely lives outside the jurisdiction of the US - Europe, Africa, Asia. He can pick up the money anonymously at any Western Union and you never hear from him again.
Unfortunately, I have seen too many of these cases and none of them are ever solved.
Feel free to file a police report, but do not expect that you will ever get your money back.

Go to the department's website and find the recruiting information there. You can also call them for information.

I'm not sure why you would think that. Getting good grades is very important if you want to be a police officer.
I went to a well known university to be an aerospace engineer (you know, a rocket scientist.) I determined engineering wasn't much of a challenge and discovered law enforcement was a far more challenging career.
Fortunately, I am not the only guy to make good grades to go into law enforcement. In the states I have worked (Georgia and Florida), most of the officers I have met/worked with are much brighter than the general public. You have to be intelligent and quick thinking to do the job. Idiots should not apply.
Do morons get into law enforcement? Sometimes. But, most of them are weeded out during training. The few that are left tend to get promoted rapidly.
I'm a bit perplexed by anyone who thinks that no one smart goes into public safety (or the military.) I guess it is watching too many movies.

For what? Walking in public?
If you were intoxicated to the point of being charged with something it is unlikely the officers would have dropped you off at home.
Share Answer: 
It depends on a number of factors including jurisdictional authority and the statute of limitations.
