> There really is so little concern or compensation given to innocent people who get hit by the system. No, there is none. You can report directly to the police force which will throw your complaint out. The next step is the IOPC [1] which is made of ex-police, and it's not independent. They just clear themselves of wrong-doing, when they are evidently in the wrong. > How long did it take you to get your items back? What sort of damage did they do? Over a year in one case, several months in another case (car keys, phone, wallet, work clothes). If it wasn't for having another bank account, a spare car and phone (all of which they didn't know about), I would have been without an income. To add insult, they lost the car keys and damaged the phone. When I complained, they told me to claim on the house insurance - which would have sent the premiums through the roof. > Also curious about this if you have any more info to share. What sorts of communities did you see that with? Tight-knit groups, such as travellers or gangs. They have no way to enter the group and they all share the same name when asked.
