My Duster was stolen

How do we know the cop and the "new owner" aren't one in the same?

Tom, have you thought of that?
I have, and when he was "investigating" these thefts. I was the one who did the leg work and found the listing for the car for sale on the web, up until that point he had no desire to pursue any real investigation as to how the car was sold. During my telephone conversations with him he would threaten me that he was going to "drop" the investigation if I was on him about getting nothing done and he could clearly tell I was frustrated (WHICH I WAS) I feel like he is looking out more for the thieves who stole my property instead of the victim here.
