Or just the police not even trying to solve it. In my city, it's inconsistent. A neighbor's alarm activated by accident and 3-4 policemen arrived quickly. Yet a friend's house was actually burgled, they took an ipad which tracked itself to two addresses in a nearby suburb and the police said "sorry, we won't check that out, you should have had cameras". I have a feeling the police prefer to solve crimes by talking to people and browbeating them into revealing things rather than using technology, so I was surprised they recommended cameras.
