It's unlikely that if your house is broken into that you have less than $950 worth of loss, because usually you'll have broken doors and windows, along with a large amount of missing stuff. Also, you realize that in general police rarely investigated burglaries, and even in the case of serial burglaries, few are solved. Arrests are rare. It has absolutely nothing to do with lack of prosecution. I've been a victim of burglary in the past, and when the cops came, they walked around, and took some pictures. They questioned us, because we were young and our place didn't have a lot of valuables, and they suspected us to be drug dealers. I asked them when we could expect any followup, and they literally laughed, then said "we're probably not going to bother investigating because the investigations rarely find the perpetrators. we're here so that you can file an insurance claim." We had more quite a bit more than $1000 of stolen goods and damage, and we were poor at the time.
