Hi all,

My person was arrested 16 months ago and we hadn't heard back anything at all until today.

We got a phone call from the person in charge of inventories who said something along the lines of "we are calling regarding a case that was closed last year. When would you like to pick up your laptop?"

The police never updated us so that was really confusing. My person inquired about his phone (both his phone and laptop were seized) but the person said they didn't know there was a phone, that they didn't have it on the screen but would check and call back.

Would the person in charge of inventories know if the case actually closed? If so, why do they have no information about his phone?

Thank you for your help.

I'm hoping for the best but I don't want to get my hopes up.



Thank you!

Thank you so much for your reply.

He is scheduled to pick his items tomorrow. I'll let him know about the item receipts!

We checked with the person that works with the inventory and they have confirmed the case was closed earlier this year for lack of evidence.

We are elated! The officer in charge of his case left, so that might be why we didn't hear back earlier? I'm not sure though
