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.
You will not likely get a ticket at this point.
Trust your gut. Drug habits are tough. I'd recommend reaching out to some resources in your community that might be able to help you. You cannot make him quit, you can only protect yourself and your children (if you have any.) Good luck.

If the child is in an unsafe environment, I encourage you to contact your local law enforcement agency or state child protection agency. There are too many unknowns in your question to give any kind of realistic answer.
Dry Cleaner
What happens to clothing at dry cleaners that goes unclaimed?
Antiques Dealer
What's the most profit you've ever made from a single item?
Chef
Is it true that the "specials" are usually the stuff that's been sitting around awhile?
I'd suggesting checking South Carolina law: http://www.sled.sc.gov/SCStateGunLaws1.aspx If you don't find what you are looking for, contact SLED for more information.
Depends on what state the crimes happened in, what the laws of the state are, the severity of the injuries, what (if any) special circumstances are in play and the defendant's criminal history.
For example, if a man slaps a woman and there are no injuries, prior convictions or other special circumstances, it would likely be a misdemeanor. It would probably be up to one year in jail.
If the woman is pregnant, elderly, or significantly injured then the charge might be elevated to an aggravated circumstance and be classified as a felony. Depending on the laws of your state, 20 years in prison is probably the top end.
Likewise, someone with one or more prior convictions for battery might also be charged as a felony.
Hitting a child might start off as physical child abuse and escalate depending on some of the prior concerns (severity, history, etc.) Most child abuse cases are felonies, so figure up to another 20 years on that one.
It really depends on the specifics of the case and the laws of your state.
It depends on the state. Every state has different traffic laws. I wish I could be more definitive.
