Question

is it illegal for a police officer not to take a complete police report or to waste time of the victim?



Answer

No.



Answer

Police have NO legal obligation to take any particular action, investigate anything, arrest anyone, file reports, etc. They can not be sued for any failure to act. They are there to protect 'society', not you specifically. For example, calling 911 does not guarantee police response, it is merely a desperate plea for help. That is why the old self defense saying, "better a gun in the hand, than a cop on the phone". The other old saying that applies is, "when every second counts, help from 911 is only minutes away".
