Yea but like how do you know what the cops are thinking. They could assume its a “self-report” if they can’t find any suspects. I watched a documentary where the boyfriend was immediately their #1 suspect, but thankfully they later found evidence that someone else did it, and that he wasn’t involved with his girlfriend’s disappearance. That could’ve turn out poorly if the cops were being dicks.
I’m pretty sure it doesn’t apply when you’re the one calling the police.
its not unheard of for the cops to kill the caller
I’ve only heard that from the US, though.

I guess in that case you have to weigh that risk against how much you like your girlfriend.
But wouldn’t it look more suspicious if she was missing for a week and the boyfriend “just didn’t want to get the cops involved”?
Romantic partners are basically always looked at by investigators because of how frequently they end up being the personal responsible for the crime.
