Indianapolis PD firearm seizure, no return

[VUPDblue]

I heard she is retiring.

I will literally celebrate. I have never come across a more self-righteous, arrogant, condescending **** in all my years.

From a police officer... that's saying something!

Are there special rules for cars towed with an ongoing investigation? Seems like somebody in there other than the officer or lab would taint any additional evidence.

Yes. If the paperwork is marked “detective hold” then it is to remain secure. If it’s a high profile crime like murder or something along that line, the car goes to crime lab, not the tow lot.

Seriously, how do you really feel? Dont hold back, you are among friends.

I never practiced in front of her, but everyone I know who has feels pretty much the same way as you.

Just be glad we don’t live in a Anti-2A state. I had a friend who’s firearm got stolen while he was on vacation out of his Hotel Room, it was recovered about 6 months later in Va. if I remember right. A year later he got it back his nice S/A Operator had the case number, and Property Tag number engraved on the slide with an electric pencil by whom I’m assuming was Michel J Fox... or an addict with the withdrawal shakes something horrible! Their explanation “paper tags get damaged and fall off when moved around. He did manage to get it taken care of but it ended up costing him a lil coin for an atty. The S.O. replaced the firearm because of the damage.

Tick, tock, tick, tock... Approaching 4 months now without my pistol. Secured by IMPD for "safe keeping" as I rode in an ambulance to Community North. I'm getting more than a little steamed under the collar. I'm not sure if there's any legal recourse here but I'll be looking into that shortly.

Hit up guy relford. He has a very good record of big settlements for police departments overstepping their authority or not doing their jobs. This is BS. Good luck

What possible reason could they have for not returning it under those circumstances??

Bureaucracy

Or someone that just tries to make it hard for gun owners. Cause gun owners are "bad".

A policy that for no matter what reason, ANY firearm that enters the property room MUST go through ballistics testing to verify that it was not used in a crime. (make sure it doesnt match any bullets of unknown origins)

AKA "Guilty until proven innocent."

This is why in recent years I advise people to carry a reliable handgun that you don't have a lot of money in. Then when the police take it, and go into their "backdoor" gun confiscation scheme (while claiming they're for law abiding citizens being able to carry) you won't be out so much. Their actions show they're banking on the idea that it will cost more to hire a lawyer than the gun's worth, so you'll just forget about it eventually and let them keep it. Hence, "we've gotten another gun turned in".
