> But let's say the victim is kidnapped or something at this point. Are the police going to be able to do anything?

They'll know that I was in distress RIGHT NOW, instead of two hours later when I fail to show up for that party I told my fiance I'd meet her at - and even then, she would have to wait 22 hours before filing an official police report.

The possibility of kidnapping elevates this to a whole new level.
