    If no one believes you witnessed a crime, you could be intimidated or fined for false reporting. If you report a crime and there are no other witnesses the police may try to pin the crime on you considering your history of false reporting. A psychological review may be called for if you object to the accusation by the police that you may have committed the crime and then reported the crime since there were no other witnesses. If the psychological review cannot confirm or deny the validity of your claim then you may be held over for psychological panel review. This requires the testimony of six doctors regarding your case and can take up to three years to resolve. You are required to see each of these doctors and this process could take a year during which time you are a ward of the court and the life you may have had is falling apart. Your refusal to renounce the details of the crime you reported as true can keep you actively involved with the legal system for years unless your assigned mental health professional decides to apply terms like schizo to your state of mind.
    There's no penalty for reporting a crime. There could be a penalty for not reporting one however, especially if you were involved in it.
    These days, the penalty could be your life, depending on who you report! If you've every watch THE FIRST 48, witness intimidation happens all the time in the inner cities.

    Their right there isn't any penalty for reporting a crime as long as your not reporting a FALSE crime then there are penalties.
    IF THERE IS A PENALTY IT WOULD BE BY YOU BROADCASTING THAT YOU REPORTED ONE . BUT THERE BY ALL RIGHTS SHOULD NOT BE A PENALTY UNLESS THE REPORT IS FULSE . THE ONLY REPOCUTION I SEE WOULD BE THE VICTOMS GRATETUDE IF THEY KNEW IT WAS YOU OR NOT . THAT IS A LOT BE BE PROUDE OF . I PERSOLY GIVE YOU THUMSUP .

    In case you haven't noticed, your answer is all uppercase. :) :D And so is your username! XD
    A foolproof way to steal from someone, and make sure they get lost in the system if they complain.
    Good answer. The loss of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness are quite possible. or I could just leave it as tour life will never be the same.
