This is how today's adventure ended, in the Roseville Rd. Light Rail Station. And Sacramento County Sherriff's is worse than useless. :P The worst part is, mine wasn't the only car affected! But they still wouldn't send anybody out! Instead, I get to call in between the hours of 9 and 5 to report it... No *wonder* nobody reports crime anymore. :P

But the rest of the day was fun.

When you find out who did it, charge them a “picking glass out of seat annoyance fee” and a “resisting urge to throw glass in your face fee”. If they don't pay, sic collectors on them!

Grrrr!

I hope nothing was taken, and it was only vandalism.

When Rob and I first moved in together at our first apartment, there was an incident just like that. Windows of multiple cars in the same unlit lot were smashed in. Everyone reported it to the police. I have this hunch that no one even looked for the shithead.

We all demanded the landlords to fix the broken lights because out of all the lots in this complex (the complex went bldg lot bldg lot bldg lot), ours was the only one that got vandalized. They never fixed it. Needless to say, we didn't renew our lease. ^_^;;

A window-smash car robbery is one of the least solveable crimes, usually without fingerprints, or at least usable ones, almost always without witnesses, and they usually take so little that it's not worth an insurance report. Someone recently jimmied my car door outside work, on a residential street in broad daylight, stole my partner's leather jacket and an ashtray full of quarters and dollar coins. I came out to find the door ajar and figured I'd left it that way, the next day he reached for the ashtray to get bridge toll and said, "Hey, where's the ashtray?" (the whole thing was gone), then the next day, realized his jacket had been on the back seat, and was possibly even the reason the car was broken into. But I can't imagine anyone could catch the thief, police reports are basically for the sake of insurance.

That totally sucks.

yeah, robbing a persons car might as well be legal at this point. They do nothing!!! Last time my car was robbed there were big black dirty fingerprints on the window. A four year old with tape could have taken a good set, but no, they didn't care and wouldn't do anything about it. It's not like I asked them to follow up on it, just take them and put them on file so if that idiot gets tagged for something else, this would add to his sentence. But no!! But I have to be nice to the Sac Sherrif's office, my bf's dad is one! (it wasn't him, I swear!!!)
