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.
Don't be afraid - you are being scammed.
In general, a police officer can use that force which is reasonable to defend himself or another, to prevent a crime or to detain a subject. Refer to http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=US&vol=490&invol=386 and http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=US&vol=471&invol=1 as a starting point for this body of work.
It depends on the circumstances. Detectives go through a lot of training to learn how to interview people and how to investigate homicides. It is far to in-depth of a question for me to answer.
Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.

Flight Attendant
What's the scariest flight you've ever been on?
Auto Mechanic

The rules for mailing tickets may be substantially different from on view violaions observed by a police officer. So, you may or may not get a ticket mailed to you. I really dont know. Call the police department in question if it is really bothering you.
I don't know what a 'social host' law is. However, your parents should be able to provide you guidance on what you should and should not do. Good luck.
If it has already been stolen, and you have not proactively installed tracking software, you are probably out of luck. You might want to check some of the tech sites for additional information. Alternatively, you could call the NSA and ask for help, but they might not appreciate the call.
If you have not lost your phone, try installing one of these programs...
