I need help. Please someone I need to file Lawsuit against police.P.S On the copy of the report he sent me with the police it states the police said that this would be anonymous.Please I need a attorney or advice on where I can find one.

First thing I would do is contact the FBI or Postal Inspector and report the threat sent to you through the mail. I would suggest you contact a Missouri attorney concerning your right to sue the Missouri police agency.
