    I'm so sorry.
    I know how it feels when police fail.
    Somebody stole my mom's purse at Fred Meyer's two years ago. The part of the store they were in didn't have cameras, so no footage.
    However, the thieves went 3 blocks away to a K-mart and bought $500 worth of stuff with the cash for x-mas presents in my mom's purse. It was an older man and a younger woman. They used my mom's ID, got away without the clerk noticing the photos didn't match, and then went to the ATM up ahead in the store and tried to withdraw money, but didn't know the pin number.
    All of this was caught in clear picture, with closeups, from the K-mart security cameras.
    The police didn't do anything, even though they had a clear view of their faces. The manager of
    K-mart even said himself, "You can't get a clearer close up of somebody's face."
    They wanted nothing to do with it. On top of that my mom's cell phone, which they had in the purse, had a GPS tracking device in it. We located the exact coordinates they were at, and the police grudgingly went to the place--it was a run down apartment not far from the stores the crime happened at.
    The police couldn't do more than to knock on doors and ask people if they had the purse. -.-
    Yeah, 'cause if criminals just told police "Yup, I took it!" when they knocked on a door, I would've been there "asking" myself.
    I guess after all that, it's not enough for a search warrant--or they didn't care, the police.
    Either way, we got one present that year, a used pawned off Wii that my parents were planning to buy games for a the store, but no games for it since they had made off with the money.
    The thieves, however, got a new surround sound system, jewelry including watches, earrings, and rings, amongst other things.

    So, I know your pain. I'm so sorry.
