Rules regarding hostage situations are kinda dumb. For example if you kidnap an APD and try to do a hostage situation with them the police can simple ignore your request and then stout can’t do anything with them... you can’t rob them because the rules say if you tried to do a hostage situation you aren't allowed to rob them... I feel that if police decide to ignore your request for a negotiator then you should be able to do anything you want with the hostages as if you never attempted to do a hostage situation with them.
