There's a lot that could happen. If the officer fails to file the missing child report and the child is later found murdered than the city and Police officer responsible is looking at millions of dollars being lost to a wrongful death and negligence lawsuit.

The Officer may even be terminated from his position and could possibly face criminal charges too for misconduct resulting in death. Not only are the parents going to be out for the officers blood but the prosecutors office is going to be out for alot more.
