Why do I pay taxes? And some of the highest taxes in the country at that. Is this 10.25% sales tax worth of police work? I don't think so.
yeah that's pretty much how it goes (they don't make money on investigating your loss, only on traffic citations, and they don't care about crime rates such as stolen personal possessions, only on things like murder)
sorry to hear that this is the case.

Cop: And was there anything of value in the car?
The Dude: Oh, uh, yeah, uh... a tape deck, some Creedence tapes, and there was a, uh... uh, my briefcase.
Cop: [expectant pause] In the briefcase?
The Dude: Uh, uh, papers, um, just papers, uh, you know, uh, my papers, business papers.
Cop: And what do you do, sir?
The Dude: I'm unemployed.
Your talk with the cops made me think of this...anyway, chicago police are short staffed a couple thousand police everyday and people get murdered everyday... your on your own to solve this case man. I drive an ambulance in the city and this guy blew a stop sign and I t-boned him, since there were no injuries it took the cops over an hour to get there to do a report! Tell us more about the "staged break in" and this "handy man" please.Originally posted by b3albakiithe head was okey .. and in a good mood

my truck was stolen from school campus and the 'detective' came to the deduction that i had left it unlocked with the keys in the vehicle. he told me to be less careless in the future and closed the case. the 'authorities' don't care - you're going to have to do the work yourself if you're going to find these guys. be vigilant.1989 325is / 2.7, 274 cam, e30 M3 5-lug

The ET came to the scene and I showed him where the overhead door looked to by pried with a screw driver - right around the locking plate on the outside.
I hadn't touched it prior to his arrival because I thought he would finger print the place - however after stating that I "watch too much CSI" he told he he couldn't finger print on any surface less smooth then glass.
We then tried to replicate the brake in (the door and locking mechanism was still in full functioning condition) with a screw driver. Not only could we not replicate the unlocking scenario, we couldn't see how it would even be possible.
It was deemed a staged break in so the case immediately pigeon holed down to who has the keys: Me, the owner, and his handy man. I didn't steal my own stuff, so that leaves 2 suspects.
THE OWNER: acted pretty sketchy when the ET was there, telling lots of over detailed stories. He talked 3x as much as I did. Prior to seeing that I thought he was a stand up guy, but that irked me out.
THE HANDY MAN: was the previous renter of the garage. When I moved in the owner had him change the locks. This handy man still had odds and ends in the garage - and being the handy man, I figured it was alright for him to have the key also. Turns out after speaking with the owner post break in - he shouldn't have had a key and shouldn't have had anything in the garage anymore. He had also been going in and out to grab things when i wasn't around, and was there a hand full of times while I was working. He's shady at best and hard up for money according to the owner: "He just asked me to borrow $50 last week. i usually lend him money every once in a while."
