What is the name of your state? TEXAS
Thank you for considering my question.
I am having my house remodeled. The same 5 contractors are in my house every day.
Wednesday March 30 I discovered jewelry missing and called the police. I was able to tell the police that the time frame it was taken was between 11.30 and 3.30 because I had placed it in the box before goIng to lunch, and went to retrieve it when I returned.
Cutting a long story short - the police dusted for prints on the container the jewelry was in, and although each of the contractors agreed to be fingerprinted - the police did not fingerprint anyone, even though they said they had a 'good print'.
The police then brought 3 search and rescue 'sniff' dogs to my home and all three dogs identified the same contractor; yet they did not arrest him.
Could you please explain to me why that is and if I have any civil recourse.
They are telling me that my case will be assigned to a detective at the PD on Monday who will present the case to the district attorney in the hopes he takes the case.
I am baffled, frustrated and very upset; and would appreciate any assistance, advice or direction that you could provide.
Thank you.
