ULPT Request: My mom is having an affair with a Police Officer. How can I cause issues in the cop's life without it trickling into my family?
Posted by Strange_Purple_8418@reddit | UnethicalLifeProTips | View on Reddit | 120 comments
Im trying to play it safe because I dont want to risk anything for myself or my family with his current connections to the law. How can I anonymously cause issues for this man? Ive already done everything for my Mom and she has no intention on stopping the affair.
Call me selfish, but my Dad is a severely depressed and suicidal man, so at this current time telling him is out of the picture.
Any advice is very appreciate.

I know it's going to hurt him, but he is bound to find out eventually, and it will hurt even more when he learns that you knew the entire time and didn't tell him. Now, not only one but TWO people close to him lied to him.
There's no other way around it: tell your dad. Seriously, TELL. YOUR. DAD.

Get pulled over for a traffic infraction. Tell the officer "you should let me off because [name cop] is dating your mom."
Apprehensive_Hat8986@reddit
Do NOT tell a traffic cop that someone is fucking their mom.

Dawg if your dad finds out WITHOUT you telling him, you're all fucked.

Steal his gun and badge while he is cheating and drop it off with his Captain with an explanation that it was found by a child in a park known to be a place men meet up for sex.
UnicornCalmerDowner@reddit
Does the police officer have a family? A baby/toddler? Wife? Do you know their address?
Sad-Day-9564@reddit
Are you suggesting doing something to a child?

loll no

You're the one asking for personal information about someone you don't know to stir some shit.. So I'd say are YOU crazy?
UnicornCalmerDowner@reddit
Oh no, not the highly public information about people that are having an affair....
Over_Boysenberry_108@reddit
I don’t understand the downvotes, I too find it concerning to ask for the officers personal details like that.

Strange your mind went there tho innit?
Strange_Purple_8418@reddit (OP)
Family, wife, daughters, grandkids, house. No number but I can probably find it.
UnicornCalmerDowner@reddit
I can't tell if you are an adult or a minor and how much money you have access to. If you can scrape together a couple hundred bucks I would hire a PI to follow one or both of them and get photos/videos to give at least one of their spouses and the police captain.
UnicornCalmerDowner@reddit
This guy has a whole family and he's cheating with your mom? That's ballsy.
Okay you need to start googling his address. Once you have it start mailing shit to his house. Wear gloves. He's a cop and he's gonna dust for finger for prints on the envelopes/paper.
I would start with a one page letter with a one word message that says "cheater" or "homewrecker"as big/little as you want on it (not your handwriting), every day for a month. If he doesn't leave your mom alone, the following month I would start sending random locales postcards to his work (the police station) openly calling him a fucking "cheater" or "homewrecker" or whatever message you choose and shaming him for all the world to see, everyday. That will go over like a led balloon.

No, but he has a wife

Good one. The old Henny Youngman line always holds up ("I'm not married, my wife is").
bhd_ui@reddit
Almost always
Strange_Purple_8418@reddit (OP)
She knows. Just doesnt know that its continued on. Also, that will manage to get back to my dad, cause the way she found out originally was my Dad telling her about a year ago
fuckyesnewuser@reddit
hey, i get that you want your mom to stop cheating, but you're only trying to push away one suitor for the cheating. And that's a suitor with access to guns and a battalion of friends ready to help or cover for him if he wants to make your life miserable. There are reasons why so many cops are domestic abusers, and one of them is because they can get away with it. All of this to say: don't go after the cop.
What you want to do is go after your mom. Even in the best case scenario where the cop dumps her and you don't get any repercussions from your actions towards him, your mom can and probably will move on to another person. So you can try making her life harder, and even hint at that you'll stop if she stops cheating or at least comes clean to your father.

Perhaps anonymously send photos to his captain. He's probably breaking some morality clause..
smokin_monkey@reddit
Be fucking careful. Cops can get very volatile in these situations. I know of 2 cases where the cop killed the people (both were the mistress). They were about to be exposed.
LikeVini@reddit
Tie his shoelaces together when he's not looking. That'll teach him a thing or two.
AngelOrChad@reddit
Hire a private investigator to find a crime that the cop has committed and get him arrested. Cops are VERY afraid of prison. Hypothetically, one could pay the cops wife to report him for domestic violence(she could go as far as to give herself a black eye), but I won't officially endorse that as that would be illegal.
But seriously, you should tell your Dad, as it wouldn't be good for him to find out on his own.
Joshuajword@reddit
Police officers will kill you and get your mom arrested for it. Tell her to get out of that thing and don’t mess with him.

Additional_Gold7683@reddit
So; OP is going to go all ULPT on the other man, when his mum can’t keep it her own pants?
Worry about your house first.
If the cop harasses or stalks her after she ends it, then okay, fine, then ULPT fuckery abounds.
But, what’s to say that after you jack this cop’s life up — your mum continue to pursue him? Are you going to continue to punish the cop, or does your mum hold any accountability in this at all?
Sounds like you’re just lashing out, because you don’t want to, or cannot, hold your own mum accountable.
hilariousnessity@reddit
Your dad and mom need therapy but won’t get it and won’t break their crummy habits. They both need to take responsibility for their own lives. They are adults and know better. You are their child and you can’t save them from themselves. Do not get in the middle of their destructive marriage. Take good care of yourself. You mean well but saving them is not your responsibility.
Leave the cop and his wife to themselves.
Over_Boysenberry_108@reddit
I get wanting to blame the other person, but it sounds like your mom is also at fault (and perhaps a softer place to direct your feelings?)
I agree with others your dad deserves to know. Could you lay it out to her that you know it’s still happening and tell her she has to come clean to your dad or else you will? I think her telling him would be best case scenario for all.
Cop or not, nothing good can come from targeting the other party and I’ve seen too many true crime shows start out just like this ..

Does it matter he is a cop or are you looking for extra brownie points?? I would mind my business . Of your mom’s a cheater are you sure your dad is really your dad?
Strange_Purple_8418@reddit (OP)
It does matter cause I dont want to get fucking shot and give him a paid vacation. Many things that work for normal people wouldn't work for cops cause of their connections. Im being smart here and protecting my wife and kid
Sekreid@reddit
You’re just as likely getting your ass kicked by sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong by anyone else
SubstantialPressure3@reddit
Yes it does matter because cops will retaliate and make your life hell, if they don't just find a reason to pull you over and shoot you during a traffic stop.

Tell your dad dude. Also your mom is just as guilty here. So ruin her life as well to be fair.

Tell your dad and tell him you want him to get a divorce so you don't have to live with your mom anymore.

Cops can do whatever they want. Don’t forget that.
Ginsdell@reddit
This is none of your business. Be there for whatever the fallout is but don’t get involved in your parent’s sex life.
Tr_llsBeG_ne@reddit
Wtf lol. Strange take
Ginsdell@reddit
Not a strange take nor a projection. I just think any of the choices or suggestions will result in a big family mess, possible violence and one or both parents may discontinue their relationship with her. All of those seem like bad options. And again, her parent’s sex life is none of her business.
Tr_llsBeG_ne@reddit
That is an insane amount of speculation and fear.
hacefrio2@reddit
Not so strange if you are also cheating on your spouse
Tr_llsBeG_ne@reddit
That's a strange situation to anticipate

Not really. She's saying the person who wrote the comment is projecting, which is very common.

nooklyr@reddit
But then you’ll have to kill him and your wife will hate you
cxxshads@reddit
By not telling your dad, you’re enabling the behavior. You have to tell dad, maybe have someone else for support for him to be there while you tell him. And make sure you have proof of the affair, because he may go into denial
DeniedAppeal1@reddit
OP: Have you forgotten that cops tend to kill people? That they tend to kill their partners when they get upset?
This is one of the rare cheating situations where you have to be extremely careful with acting if you want to avoid people getting hurt or killed.
SubstantialPressure3@reddit
Listen, the best way to deal with this is going to be telling your mother that you know.
It doesn't matter what happens to that cop. He's probably cheated before, and he's going to cheat again.
The problem is that your mother is betraying your father.
And your father may be aware, or your mother is gaslighting him and lying to him and it's contributing to his depression.
You have to tell your dad.
The problem is already in your family. There's no avoiding that. Retaliating on the guy that your mother is cheating with isn't going to solve your problem.
But if you really want to cause that cop some headaches, I would get pictures and video proof that he's cheating, particularly if it's on the clock, he's in uniform, driving the police car, etc.
Next thing I would do is find some computers that are used by the public. Library, internet cafe if those are still around. You don't want to use any of your personal devices.
If your library has computers, they probably have computer passes. Use a computer pass, not your library card.
Make a throw away email on a public device. Who is in charge of his department? I would pick internal affairs. Send pictures, video, and screenshots of your proof to internal affairs. Do not sign your name or give any identifying information. Put something in the title of your email with that officers name.
And most importantly, NEVER NEVER check that email on one of your own devices. EVER. Only check that email on publicly used devices.
Assume that there are cameras in those places, so wear a mask, and wear something that will change your body shape, and not clearly recognizably yours. Ex: if you have a custom hoodie that nobody else has, don't wear that. Wear very generic looking things that lots of people own. Even better if it's something that you would never wear. If you have tattoos, cover them.
If you have long hair, tie it up and wear a hat. See where I'm going?
canadachris44@reddit
Send an anonymous letter to the cops wife. Proof even too if you can somehow get it!
scimitar1312@reddit
Tell your dad then give him the cops address and a gun
Worried_Term_7030@reddit
So, you are telling him to have their dad 'suicided by cop'?
scimitar1312@reddit
Nope
BearAssedRunner@reddit
Report it to his watch commander, chief of police, Internal Affairs, etc. Adultery is against the law in most states, and most definitely against policy in the rest.
Valnaire@reddit
First and foremost, you have to tell your Dad. Especially if he's as depressed as you say he is.
If you don't tell your Dad and he finds out on his own and, worse, finds out you knew and didn't tell him, his trust in you will shatter and you'll be unable to be there for him.
Tell your Dad.
ebb_@reddit
This. I’m a dad with depression. Suicide runs in my family. Fine now.
I’m the last one to know about something like this? After you knew for weeks/months/longer? My worst fears coming together and being true?
Fuck yall, I’m out.
HalfaYooper@reddit
Tell your dad. The man needs to know. If he finds out you know and didn't say anything. You are dead to him. If he's depressed, be there for him. A double betrayal will be MUCH worse for his mental health.
Exceptional_Angell@reddit
Why not let your mom live her life and you butt out? It may not be your favorite answer but it IS an option
Southernms@reddit
Omg! Proceed with extreme caution.
Is the cop married?
Is it possible that your father knows and is ok since he can’t meet all of the marital needs?
disgruntledhobgoblin@reddit
Remember COPs are brutal creatures. Act as if he could become a domestic abuser any day so keep your mother as far away from the fallout as possible. Make it as public as possible too so people are watching it. Much less chance of the cop brutalising someone quietly when it all goes down
credij@reddit
If the cop is married blackmail him. (Not to mention that most departments have a morals and ethics clause in the contracts that may cover this.)
Think of all the shit you could get away with!
(Remember, this IS unethicallifeprotips)
akillerofjoy@reddit
Ascertain your affiliations. Friend vs. foe. Friend - your dad. The only true victim in this scenario.
You have come to know some information that he deserves to know more than you do. Which means, it’s on you to tell him the truth. And every second that you don’t tell him is a second that you are doing your mother’s bidding by lying to him. Lying by omission is still lying.
You tell him. Then you stick by his side. Help him.
anarquisteitalianio@reddit
This right here.
Juicy-Lemon@reddit
Cops are notorious cheaters - tell his wife and the police chief. You can do it anonymously. It’s easy to find anyone’s address
PolyDrew@reddit
Hire a PI. Have them send the files directly to the wife but remain anonymous. She won’t know who sent it but she can take action.
I would also send them to the police chief/commissioner/sheriff.

Signal_Violinist_995@reddit
You should be wanting to deal with your mom. The cop isn’t the one breaking his vow to your dad - your mom is. If she is cheating with this guy, and you ruin inside, she will just get another. If your dad is depressed and suicidal, your mom most likely has some mental issues dealing with that. Talk to your mom. Put the blame where it belongs.

Get cops phone number. Get in trouble and say my mom’s boyfriend is that cop.

UncleGrover666@reddit
I strongly suggest you tell your dad about what’s going on and assist DAD with enacting proper vengeance.
Read the prince by Machiavelli- if you must fuck with a cop, choose a vengeance method so extreme that the cop loses all ability to respond. Good luck.

Don't fuck with cops. They'll murder you and get a pays vacation as punishment.
