Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

My roommates car was recovered by the police today when they saw it covered in dust in the Venetian and randomly ran a license plate check. My roommate went down there and the police found an ID on a keychain. When he came back, we found a bunch of other stuff. The person was an asian girl who goes to high school in Long Beach...her class schedule was in the car.

My Ipod and $200 headphones were obviously not in the car though. I only found out about the car being stolen after the police were notified, so I'm not sure if it was ever put on the police report. The police have her id; I'm not sure if they're going to track her down, but is there any chance I'll recover my Ipod or get reimbursed for it?

Only if your friend goes through insurance for it, which he could...but his deductible is likely more then the stuff is worth, and it could affect his renewal rates if he makes a claim....so no.

No, but firebomb her house.

Was she fit?

Re: Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

Why do you think the ID belongs to the thief? It seems much more likely the ID got stolen, too, and the thief left it in the car by purpose.

perfect extortion sex-for-your-silence opportunity.

Re: Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

She's not the one who stole it. She's the girl the thief tortured, raped and buried in the desert.

High school Asian chic from Long Beach in Vegas...hmmm?

Re: Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

in all seriousness, what makes you think its the id of the thief?

I wouldn't hold out much hope for the tape deck.

Or the Creedence.

maybe your roomate stole your ipod and abducted/raped the girl and dumped her body. I would go to your roomate and DEMAND a full explanation.

you can turn it in to your homeowners insurance and maybe you are covered. but i would call her home and tell her parents if you dont get paid immediately you are going to press charges for your theft as a felony.
i bet they will mail a check that day if she was involved in any way which is likely. although she herself probably wasnt the actual thief.
police will only follow up if you call the detective in charge every single day and ask for any new info on the case. then it becomes less work to do their job than deal with you.

Re: Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

Ummm, The real theif could have set her up. An Asian girl stealing a car?

Re: Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

Is this your homework Larry?

Re: Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

There's no chance the cops will track her down. They typed up their report, and that's the end of it.

Re: Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

Ray,

Is there really any chance that it would work? It just seems like her parents would blow me off. If this is a felony, why wouldn't the police do anything about it? It seems like it's she's getting off so easy just because the police found the car. FWIW my roommate doesn't want me to call her or pursue this any further.

i don't know if this is a good option...it'll just create tension.

Re: Stolen car found with id of thief...what should I do?
 

shes getting off easy because she's a girl and because she's asian. definitely do something bad to her personal property though. find her car(if she has one, maybe she's just one of those library anime groupies), and cover it in cement.

Also, does she look more like big piggy Margaret Cho or Lucy Liu?

/sarcasm;)

Post her pic

look for her myspace
