Police are like a help desk, you need some juice to get escalated to someone who is empowered or gives a shit. The patrolman is there to take a report. In a case affecting me, a guy was stealing low value items from my porch every week. Solution: i got the surveillance video on TV and it caught the eye of a detective lieutenant who knew the guy. The easiest path to this sort of thing is to know cops and phone a friend. Otherwise, 500 people were grifted that day… nobody cares.
