Its the same as it is for everyone else. Show up and do your job; you'll be fine.

When cops do prostitution stings, are the arrests always made on the spot? How likely are police to make arrests if the act isn't witnessed in a sting type operation? Been watching a lot of dateline predator stories and the topic never comes up.

Asked by notacop over 11 years ago

Police officers are not required to arrest someone at the time of the crime. People can be arrested after the crime has been committed.

No, I am not paid to participate here. I don't think I've seen the Alaska Satte Trooper show. I tend to avoid cop programs.

Hello officer. I am a juvenile (17) who will be 18 in june. Yesterday, I got cut by a mustang while driving... and I began to follow her. After 5 minutes, we both came to a walmart, and she called the cops. I am being charged with stalking? why?

Asked by Gus almost 12 years ago

Since I was not there, nor did I conduct an investigation in the incident, I don't know what the probable cause was for your charge.

However, I suspect it might have something to do with your statement "and I began to follow her."

Getting angry about some perceived slight while driving, and then chasing the woman, is likely the source of your problems.
