Theft and property loss isn’t a loss of life (usually). Also, eyewitness testimony is very bs. I was run into by a car and people on the street started saying it was my fault when the police showed up. I wasn’t the same race as the driver and the folks on the street. (I was blown away how blatant that was) Thankfully, the police looked at the crash and it was super obvious I wasn’t at fault. Imagine if cops listened to the “eyewitnesses” in that case even though it was blatantly obvious? I could’ve been held liable to pay for the other driver’s car and any spurious medical claims they’d start making. Blame your mayor, sheriff, and state government (who are all - unsurprisingly - voted in by locals). They’re the ones setting the agenda. Crimes of financial impact are generally seen as “should’ve bought insurance” type of situations. The agenda is set by those with money and those with money have insurance - so these things don’t bother them unless it’s egregiously expensive.
