Should I report my friends spouse to the police?
My friend has been married for 10+ years and their spouse suspects that they have been cheating. I am not sure if they are or not, but they tell me last night their spouse threatened the children and was found standing over their bed. They were then taken to a table and discussed the cheating rumors and interrogated them from 3-5am with a gun sitting on the table, hoping that the fatigue and fear would make them confess something. What makes it worse is that my friends spouse is a police officer. I am really afraid for them and for the kids. I just found out that physical abuse has been going on for years. I want to call the tip line but that could possibly make things worse.
Any suggestions?

yeah do something cuz if something happens and u didnt call neone then ull end up feeling guilty and regreting not trying to help
If it is done anonymously, then I think it is a smart move. Perhaps you could invite her and her kids on a trip so that when all the stuff goes down, she’ll be safe, but her husband won’t suspect why she’s gone, just thinking she’s on a trip.
I would call social services immediately and express your concern about making things worse too.
YES YES YES….
If he’s a police officer, his force buddies wont do sh!t.
Call it. They don’t ask for your name. It’s your conscience in play here. It’s either, them, our your fear he finds out its you. You can’t make it worse by calling. Which is helping.
Yes. If you don’t say anything and your friend end up getting shot, you’ll never forgive yourself. Hopefully you can go out of his department, because they’ll probably have his back.
i am not sure i just think you should do what you think is right. do you have any proof of what the allegations are? if not i think that they will believe the spouse over your friend, just because they are a police officer… sorry i couldn’t help any….
Yes u should definitely tell the police. Don’t tell a police officer in the area though because they could be friends and not care so tell someone that doesn’t know the guy……also you should talk to the wife before because she may not want anyone to know about it. but yeah imagine how the poor little kids felt too…. i hope i have helped you and their family…
good luck
pick up the tele n call the tipline
Maybe call his captain…his boss?You have to tell someone!!
Sounds horrific - poor kids.
Why doesn’t she leave him? You need to chat to her first about all your concerns and run it by her what could be done to change things.
It would probably be the best thing if the spouse and the kids left - she needs to get a plan together and start socking money away.
you absolutely call,
IF YOU DONT AND ONE OF THOSE KIDS GETS SHOT, HOW WILL YOU FEEL?????????
DONT EVER THINK IT CANT HAPPEN, CUS IT HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE DAY IN THIS COUNTRY. call before its too late.
tell her to get help at a womans shelter tell her to get out of the house does she live in th states? i do agree with the friend above it’s hard when your husband is a cop
This is some very tough stuff, but I think you should support your friend and not force anything directly yourself. The police and child services are required to act and follow their own set of rules. They are not counsellers, they have court orders and guns. Once started, their family will be forced into a situation that may exploded if it happens without fair warning. Help your friend get her family out of this from the inside or have her/him talk to others that can help.
If you have some evidence, report them at all cost. Immediately.
If hes a police officer it may not do as much good it could back fire. I would call Child Protective Services. CPS will come in and investigate and interview the children away from the parents, they will take the children away from the father if they feel they are in danger, that way the police wont be involved from the beging and you will get a fair fight! Good Luck! Your doing the right thing!
Yes you need to call somebody
