  1. I would ask to see either the cell phone with the date of "said" phone call that was made, or a copy of the phone record that the detective made that phone call. Either he called the wrong number, or he didn't make the call at all.

  2. I would demand the phone records of them calling you. You know they didn’t. Personally I would spend whatever it took to expose these frauds just for principal

  3. I keep pausing to comment and the more I hear this story the more it pisses me off and I’m just an observer. I give you credit Tom… for having a much cooler head. I would of been in jail by now.

  4. Tom, this sucks and really makes me doubt our law enforcement agencies. I know there are some good offices and detectives, but It sounds like they didn’t care. They seen an old truck and figured you didn’t need it. Seems pretty shady that the new owner didn’t offer it back. I hope you get it back. I also hope you figure out who didn’t do there job and gets in trouble.

  5. JOHN BRADFORD! You are the one who needs to take the hit on this. You bought a stolen truck that was tied up in corrupt, inept cops and detective work and greed from the towing yard. Sorry not sorry, Give Tom Bailey his truck back. NOW!!

  6. what if the cops are involved in steeling vehicles around the area.. they never seem to catch the person… and then the vehicles get sold and the police make money.
    its the PERFECT CRIME !

  7. I can almost guarantee this isn’t an isolated case. There are and will be others that stuff like this happened. There is some corruption going on within the PD, tow companies, and auctions

  8. Det. Randolph 100 percent dropped the ball. With that said, they guy that bought it should have done the right thing and offered it back to you. Selfish of him not to have done so with only 3k in it.

  9. Sadly, this is the wasteful use of tax dollars these days. These departments do nothing to earn the tax dollars they are paid with. And if they are found in any wrong doing, its just swept under the rug.

  10. Well Tom ad insult to injury cost3.50 cents to tell you that you got the shaft. If the detective was doin his job when he released the truck at towing service he should have went by ya'lls shop said go get your truck. Good luck on gettin to the bottom of this and gettin your truck back. Thanks for sharing

  11. Get the phone records for your phone, the one the detective called on the day the the records say they called, just to prove you never got a call from them,

  12. So the gist of the report is meh… close enough followed up by an FYI stating “we investigated ourselves and determined we didn’t do anything wrong”.

    Some super shady stuff going down and the only person screwed over is you.

  13. Local Police don't seem to give a RIP about stolen property even trucks, trailers and expensive race cars. They just say, "Ok we will file a report and claim it on your insurance."
    And that would be the end of the story. No investigation, no help. A few years ago, Someone stole my son's Honda 70 pit bike out of our barn. I took less than an hour to investigate the theft. I drove 2 miles down the road to the nearest town, and drove around town looking. I saw a man sitting on a park bench and walked up and talked with him. He was the town drunk like Otis on The Andy Griffith Show. I asked him if he had seen any kids riding around town on a little red white and black minibike. He said "Yes, he had seen a big dumb 16 year old riding a little bike all over town." I asked him to show me where the kid lives. He jumped in the car and showed me the house. I got on my mobile phone and called the Sheriff office. I gave them the name and address of the little thief. That night my phone rang at 0100. It was the Sheriff calling for me to identify the bike. I drove down and sure enough, there it was. The little punk had damaged it all over "rode it like he stole it" because he stole it. It cost me over $100 to fix all the damage. Oh, and the best part; the little punk had been a one man crime spree all over that town, and I broke the case. This kid had stolen big screen TV, Stereo equipment, groceries, alcohol, and furniture> He used all this to set up a crash pad in a vacant rental property. The Sheriff had to check theft report records to find the owners of all the stolen goods, and the kid got a few years in Juvenile because he already had a rap sheet. Insurance wouldn't have paid a dime. My $1000 deductible was more than the value of the pit bike.

  14. Maybe law's are different up there, but in Georgia to auction it off after that lien they would have to contact the owner by certified letter with delivery confirmation or a few other ways that involve proof of the owner receiving notice. Eventually it can be done by a court order if the owner is not able to be contacted but even that would take a lot longer

  15. I bet if the police knew you were a YouTube personality they would of actually cared, not about you of course but they would of cared enough to cover their asses and do their job. What a sham.

  16. Sadly, car theft "investigations" aren't really investigations at all. It's more like documentation of facts when stolen, and if recovered. No real effort is made to find it due to other cases with greater importance. When you go to the PD, see if they can tell you the number they called to leave you a message. I assume it wasn't in the report.

  17. Contact Steve Lehto he's a Michigan lawyer. If he can't help you, he can put you in contact with someone who can. By law that truck is still yours . Doesn't matter if the tow yard sold it, "legally" or not. There are documented cases of cars that were stolen in the 70s and recovered years later, to the rightfull owner after having been sold 2 or 3 even 4 times.

  18. It seems that desired vehicles are kept for parts and "hidden" in the systems available to companies that need them……the possessions in the truck (merch,tools,parts, etc)were possibly worth more than the truck and kept by the people who towed, stole or otherwise acquired it…..
    I have four towing companies that are in various stages of "crooked"( you make the the distinction)
    I lost a very nice 1997 suburban ( sought after) in the process of restoration…..The mechanic got put out of his garage for unpaid rent and my vehicle was sold off the lot without notifying me that it was……I found it in Utah sold to another towing company/ garage . I am fighting it now to be compensated for it. I FEEL YOUR PAIN…..
