Our garage was broken into several years ago and some bikes were stolen. My neighbor tried to chase them down and one bike was found abandoned in a field. I asked for fingerprints. I was told I watched too much tv.

As someone that worked in law enforcement for over 28 years. The Cops that talked to you were speaking from experience. If they (robbers) were professionals, they wore gloves, if they were amateurs, their fingerprints would not, in all probability, be in the system

A friend's house in OKC was broken into, and they stole well over $8000 of property and ransacked the house. The police stopped by, took a report and left. They weren't in the house for more than about 10 minutes. No fingerprinting, no "CSI," no nothing.
