Why Do False Reports Go Unpunished?

Why Do False Reports Go Unpunished?

Why in this day and age, do false reports go unpunished? The Police have all kinds of tracking systems at their fingertips, yet there are some idiots out there, with nothing better to do, who call in false reports on innocent people. And why not? Nothing happen's. They're not held accountable. What ever happened to being arrested for making a false report? Sending the Police on a wild goose chase put's many in danger and cost's the tax payer money. What if someone were injured or even killed? Why aren't these idiots held accountable? Why aren't they arrested and forced to pay for their false reporting?
What about the falsely accused parent's, who are retaliated against by people they thought were their friends? Who call in false reports to Child Protective Services, just to get back at the parent's or relatives for some stupid reason? What happens to the false accuser's? Nothing! They are never held accountable, yet they ruin entire families with their false accusations. Again, they're never held accountable. Never arrested. No consequences.
When will the false accuser's ever be punished? What's up with today's society? Why can't people just mind their own business and stay out of other peoples lives? Some people are just so unhappy with their own lives, they just feel the need to make the people around them as miserable as they are. I guess the old saying is true, "Misery DOES love company". 
Isn't it about time to prosecute the false accuser's? Make them pay for the havoc they create!
