Yea I've known people who had full-face surveillance camera footage of the person in the act, and cops still told them they can't do anything about it. They're all useless at anything but perpetuating cycles of poverty to insulate the ruling class from real people's struggles.

It's so disappointing, and frankly infuriating, that you were the victim and you're expected to track down the perpetrator, collect evidence, and be able to nail down who did it before the police will even consider doing anything...you know the people who are paid a full salary, numerous benefits, and a pension at taxpayer expense to prevent , investigate, and bring to prosecution criminals.

I'm sorry this happened to you.

Same thing happened in our driveway about 2 years ago. We had video ofnthe people, as did our neighbors who had their vehicle broken into too....Police showed up. Looked at the video (wouldn't even humor us by accepting a copy of it).

Makes paying my property tax this month a little bit bigger pill to swallow.
