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.
I hope everything works out for you.

You are 14. As a child, you must obey your parents. Running away won't solve anything, and can have negative consequences for you and the other involved people. At your age, your intimate involvement with another person could land them in prison.
I'd suggest talking to the school resource officer at your school or a member of the clergy at your church for guidence.

I'm not an expert on voice stress analysis or traditional polygraph testing. They are useful, but not foolproof according to my reading. I'd suggest hitting Google or Bing with any specific questions or research information on the machines and testing processes.

Depends on your state law, and it may not be legal. I'd definitely say to keep the proof of insurance, bill of sale & title paperwork with you if you do drive it.

The ownership, possession and carrying of firearms is part of our natural right to self defense and codified in the US Constitution. There should be a minimum of restrictions placed on those rights. Keep in mind that "gun control" has nothing to do with "crime control." Gun control is about control.
I have no problem with any citizen acting in a lawful manner, including teachers, to be armed on school grounds.

Sounds like the tenants had lawful possession of the home, so anyone entering without their permission should be treated criminally. The door being locked is not relevant to the crime, other than being a possible/likely point of entry.
If the situation is that the victim "thinks" someone entered the residence, and the backdoor being unlocked is the only evidence to support that belief, then no...the deputy or officer is unlikely to try and collect fingerprints. If there is something more to the incident, such as something has been stolen, damaged, moved, left, etc, then the responding deputy would be more likely to collect evidence.
It is all going to hinge on the idea of has a crime been committed. If the victim cannot show or testify to actions that indicate a crime happened, then there is not going to be much of a law enforcement response. So, the victim (or witness) needs to have seen the intruders, or there needs to be some type of evidence beyond an unlocked door. Something like dirt tracked into the residence, some trash left behind, things moved around, somethign stolen etc.

I don't work in Ohio, so I don't know the landlord-tenant laws there.
However, at 20 years old you are an adult. You probably should have moved out two years ago to start your own life. Clearly they don't want you there, so why not strike out on your own instead of having someone else paying your bills? Why do you think you are entitled to stay in someone else's home without paying rent?
