Stolen Guns and Return

[Waltercat]

Unbelievable treatment from our Gov. and the ATF.

Had a S&W M60 stolen in 1995.

Hood rat caught with it, robbing a 7-11.
Dallas PD kept until court date.
Hood rat convicted.
I contact DPD and M60 had "disappeared" from evidence.

I would just file a police report and turn it into the ATF/FBI as a stolen gun.

They don't care, at that point.

FIFY.

Of the few concerns they may have, getting you your own weapon(s) back is at the bottom of the list.
In fact, they’ll keep it, claim they got one of those evil guns off the ‘street’ and then it’ll end up in some officer’s safe or sold for $.

I had an expensive baseball bat that was seized as a “club” and was detained even though I had cleats, glove, uniforms, balls, etc with it. I was detained. Magically when I went to claim it, it had never been turned in. And because there was no report, ticket or arrest there was no ‘paperwork’ to go back to. Convenient. This was in Williamson county, TX in 1995.
Neighbor across the street was the largest donor to the sheriff. She called and inquired for me. Turns out it was sold the next day. I wanted to pursue additional legal actions but was told it was not in my best interest and that I could even be intentionally targeted if I continued to persist. Damn scumbags. And I grew up in an LE household. Still support those guys, but dang, sometimes it’s hard.
