F*cking Theives

[opie011]

My wife's co-worker stole her wallet out of her purse that was in her desk yesterday. Found out that my wife paid for someone's shopping spree at walmart while I paid for grocerys at two different places as well as paying gas for three different vehicles! Gotta love these bastards. Now I'm heading to Jeffco with my wife to report her stolen CCW. FML

That sucks. At least the cc company will cover it. Hopefully the bastage gets caught and loses his/her job

Is there a large pool of people to find a suspect from, at her work? Or a narrow few? Might help with the search. Also anyone who shows up with new stuff. Can Jeffco do anything about tracking video surveillance at those areas and get a description of the person?

I doubt they'll expent the man-hours or $$ to do that. Unlike television, real life police dept's are so buried with crimes that things like this or BMV (burglary of a motor vehicle), vandalism, etc. just don't get pursued. I love watching on TV how they always seem to dust for fingerprints - almost never happens in real life any more.

Just to update:
Got my wife a new CCW permit and Jeffco was great and waived the $15 fee since both our accounts are frozen. Filed a police report with Wheat Ridge which was surprisingly great. The lady who took it seemed to care and actually chased us down when we left to ask a few more questions!! Also, went to the gas station where the first transaction took place but no video survailence, the thief probably has done this before and gone there for a reason. Atleast we have a timeline and next is walmart where I'll speak to the manager/s there. Wish me luck guys

Walmart won't release any videos to you unless it's requested by govt authority for liability reason. Even then, sometimes Walmart will fight releasing them. FYI

Good luck!

Had the same thing happen some years ago to my wife at the place both of us worked at--and at a secured government facility no less! It happened in a part of the building where only employees could access...and everyone of them had gone through a federal screening before hiring. It can happen anywhere and anytime. The only absolute prevention is to be sure that purse and valuables are secured.

Yep being my own PI today

Small group to choose from. I've had all cards blocked but seems like the cards were handed out to several people as purchases were being made all over the grid. Also, her work CC were used. I'm going to walmart and gas stations to talk with managers about video survailence.

Sorry to hear this man, same thing happened to me. Hate to say it, but don't expect the police to give a flying shit about it, they don't care. "We don't have the resources" is all they'd do for me, and I know exactly who did it. "Can you prove it? Do you have video? Sorry, we can't help you".

Good job about being your own PI. Cops just don't do the same job as you, mainly because it wasn't their stuff stolen.

Keep us updated, hope the bastards get caught.
