I have a question.
Last night, I got caught by the cops as a woman was performing a sexual act on me in my car. It was an extremely dumb mistake and something I will never do again.
When the cop got out of the car, he asked for my ID and realized I was a college student. I guess he decided not to arrest me, but he claimed that if I didn't call my father by 6:00 pm tomorrow and tell him what happened, he would arrest me (He says he's gonna call also). Since my car is registered to my father, he was able to get my father's info.
Is this even possible? Can I be charged with this type of crime after the fact? I mean, the cop let me go, so that technically means he didn't have enough to arrest me. Can he then go back and arrest me when there is no new evidence? Is the cop just bluffing? I'm more so worried about being arrested than anything else. If he calls my dad, I can just make up a lie. Please advise me.

You could do as he orders and tell your DAD that you were having a sex act in his car and were caught by the police..OR you can ignore his order and end up arrested with your name in the papers and the possibility of having to register as a sex offender. Either way your father will find out....but its up to you if everyone else you know does too.Quote:

I suspect that the officer is bluffing, but I have no means of knowing what he actually intends to do.
You don't indicate your state, but in some states what you describe could potentially be charged as a felony.
