Custody drop off at police station

It depends,is he like aggressive or something? Not enough info.

If you'd feel safer going inside then do so however even in the parking part they'll have cctv and can come out if anything happens.

I feel like you're daughter doesn't need to be inside a police station if not necessary. I'd say try the parking lot and if anything they can come out if things get rowdy as they will have cameras or you can go inside if you feel the need to

Depends, after my protective order I required an officer to be at every exchange. But they were always done in a precinct parking lot. Even when I didn’t request an officer be present I still did them in the parking lot. However, depending on your area and the ability for someone to be present at drop offs (if you think it’s necessary) you can do them in the precinct as there likely will always been someone in the precincts and they are usually recorded.
