Yep we have countless stories from all over the place of people trying to get help with crimes that got no help from the police. Over and over I've heard people describe how they were robbed and the police don't put any effort towards catching the perpetrators or returning the property. And that's far from the worst of it.

I mean, that's because there's usually very little evidence to go on after a robbery, unless you have security cameras.

Most PDs don't even have the resources to process evidence from things like murders and rapes, so robbery isn't super high on their priority list.
