“I was using LeadsOnline to check recent transactions of a suspect within our county. After going through several pages of activity, I came across what appeared to be some of my victim’s stolen property. After contacting the victim, I placed the items on hold at two different businesses. Even though the victim refused to charge the suspect, they were very grateful to get their property back in such a timely manner. This system is a great tool. There is no waiting around or waiting for transaction tickets. Since our agency has been using LeadsOnline, we have solved and located stolen property on several occasions. Thank you to the LeadsOnline team that makes it possible for us to solve crimes. We look forward to making more and more arrests using this system.”

“LeadsOnline worked for me! There was a breaking and entering reported in the area of Walnut Cove, North Carolina. A PlayStation 3 and a TV was stolen from the residence. Within hours of the break-in I located the TV and the PlayStation 3 using LeadsOnline. Without LeadsOnline I would have not been able to locate this property so fast. Thanks!”

“I used LeadsOnline for a recent case I was working on. I got the victim’s items and the suspect admitted to burglarizing the house.”

“Recently I had a case where an elderly woman was burglarized multiple times. She even had her lock changed because she thought it was someone who may have had a key. It ended up being another woman who had befriended the victim. This woman [suspect] knew of the elderly lady through her daughter. She worked her way into the house by saying that she wanted to meet the woman who was so close to her daughter. The elderly lady let her in because the eventual thief was so nice, charming, and pleasant. Apparently during these encounters the woman would ask to use the bathroom, but instead would go to the bedroom and steal the victim’s jewelry. This occurred several different times. Prior to our discovering who the suspect was, the woman asked to borrow $40 dollars from the victim. The following day the [suspect] returned the borrowed $40 dollars and offered to do some small cleaning for the victim. After the [suspect] left, the victim went to return the borrowed $40 dollars to a hidden location in her home, and realized $160 cash was missing. The [suspect] was the only person other than the victim’s daughter who knew where the money was kept. The beat officer interviewed the [suspect] about the missing money, however she denied any involvement. Now having a new possible suspect name to look at, I searched LeadsOnline’s database and received a hit on the woman’s name. She had pawned jewelry on several different dates all at one pawnshop. The dates of the pawns were checked against the dates of the previously reported burglaries. The dates all matched the same time period. A police hold was placed on the items and photos taken. The photos were shown to the victim, who, upon seeing her missing rings, began to cry. She stated she thought she would never see the rings again, which included her wedding rings and a 50th anniversary ring her husband gave her. During this investigation, a second burglary victim was also discovered. She likewise had jewelry stolen. This victim lived in the same area and never suspected the woman who lived across from her was responsible for burglarizing her home. Thank you, LeadsOnline – without your service I may never had solved these burglaries, let alone had enough evidence against the suspected woman to lock her into a solid case. When the suspect was interviewed, she denied any knowledge of the victim’s property being stolen. After showing her the pictures of the jewelry now positively identified by the victims along with the LeadsOnline printout of her activity concerning the pawns, she confessed to the burglaries, thus giving a written statement. With LeadsOnline’s database it was easy to link everything to the suspect, recover the property and clear the offenses. Just from these two cases I recovered several thousands of dollars of jewelry. I would also like to thank the pawn shop involved, as they were very professional and helpful in this investigation as well as their help in returning the victims property.”

“LeadsOnline was helpful in locating items a suspect had sold simply by locating his name in the system. The victim did not realize the items were missing from a theft until I notified her. LeadsOnline is a great tool.”

“My victim was moving into a new house and had some friends helping her move. After getting moved in, she realized her Wii was missing as was a JVC Camcorder. She filed a report and when I contacted her she gave me the names of the people who’d helped her move. I ran a LeadsOnline check of the friends and found two of them (boyfriend, girlfriend) had pawned several items at several local pawn shops. I was able to locate the JVC Camcorder, put a hold on it, and arranged for the owner to pick it up. One suspect has been arrested and the other has made arrangements to turn himself in. We also located two lawn mowers that they pawned that were stolen on separate incidents this past week. Thanks, LeadsOnline, for making things easy.”

Det. Sam Barrale
St. Ann Police Department

“In recent months LeadsOnline has been instrumental in the investigations of a rash of vehicle larcenies and residential burglaries. Those investigations led to multiple arrests and have put a stop to many communities being targeted by these thieves. Even though we know as a law enforcement community that these types of crimes are ongoing, it is extremely helpful to have this database to obtain continuing information to assist in the investigation and prosecution of those who target our communities. Thanks again.”

“Unbelievable! While I was investigating an Occupied Burglary case, I signed up for the 30-day free trial with LeadsOnline. Within approximately 30 minutes of signing up, I received a call from a LeadsOnline representative who was ready to give me a quick tutorial of the system. While searching for my prime suspect, I got a ‘hit’ in Kennewick, WA. We are now working on getting the victim’s property back. I was very impressed. I decided to put another name in. This case involved a stolen laptop – BAM! Another ‘hit’. This time it was in Renton, WA. Amazing! I couldn’t believe it.”

“A complainant noticed some of her priceless sterling silver missing and confronted the maid who had been working for her for approximately two years. The maid confessed to stealing the items. A more intense inventory was conducted and the complainant discovered more silver missing along with a lot of expensive jewelry, prompting her to file the police report. I began an investigation by using the LeadsOnline program to search the pawn shops for any activity involving this maid. I located a history dating back to one year which included $173,430 worth of sterling silver and jewelry that are part of the stolen property reported stolen by the complainant.”

“I have only been using your program for about 8 or 9 months, but so far I have been able to solve several burglaries and thefts thanks to LeadsOnline. Officers of the Shreveport Police Department responded to a vehicle burglary in which a craftsman tool set was stolen from the vehicle. Upon their initial investigation it was learned that a neighbor had witnessed the burglary and provided officers with a license plate number. The case was then assigned to the Property Crimes Unit. Upon being assigned the case I ran the tag number and found that the car had been reported as unauthorized use against the owner’s son. I ran the son’s pawn history through LeadsOnline and found that he pawned the exact same tool set within an hour of the burglary. When presented with the facts that I had his pawn history, license number, and an eye witness, the son confessed to the vehicle burglary and was charged. The fact that I was able to locate his pawn history helped resolve this case and get the tool set back to its rightful owner.”

“Thanks to the assistance of LeadsOnline, Investigators were able to link multiple suspects to the theft of a valuable guitar. The guitar has a value of $20,000.

Special thanks to LeadsOnline for the assistance leading to the arrest of multiple suspects and the recovery of a valuable guitar.”

“I ran a report search using LeadsOnline and located a computer that was stolen from a vehicle burglary. The computer was pawned a few days later and the suspect erased the hard drive in an effort to get around the security code. The suspect then entered her name as the user on the computer and downloaded a trial version of windows to make the computer appear to be hers. I contacted the owner of the computer who stated she did not know the individual who pawned her computer. I recovered the computer and identified a suspect in the case. Without LeadsOnline, I would have never been able to identify a suspect in this case or recover this computer.”

“We received a hit on a serial number for a digital Nikon camera reported stolen in a residential burglary. The camera was sold to the Pawn Shop before the burglary was reported. Running the customer’s name returned four other pawns of stolen property without serial numbers at different pawn shops matching property stolen from the burglary.”

Det. Alex Stephen
Seattle Police Department

“I wanted to make mention of another success story thanks to LeadsOnline. Seabrook Police Detective Ross Breeding checked the serial number of a camera stolen in a residential burglary through LeadsOnline and linked it to a suspect. The suspect was located and arrested after having been identified by a pawn shop clerk. At the time of the arrest, several hundred pieces of stolen jewelry were also impounded along with computers, electronic devices, and a plethora of other assorted small valuable items. This also cleared multiple burglary cases in the greater southern Harris county area, and resulted in several felony charges being filed against the suspect. While it may have been extra work, it is the sort of work a good police officer doesn’t mind doing because it brought smiles to some of those who were victimized. Thanks to LeadsOnline, it looks like we will have more satisfying work in the future. Bad guys are getting spanked by the technology thanks to LeadsOnline.

“This agency took a report on burglary of a church where several tools and related items were stolen. A suspect name developed during the course of the investigation, and he was checked through LeadsOnline. The search yielded information documenting suspect pawn activity in two separate counties. It also allowed for a 100{eaf91c7142ede36c84724a2d24afac6a4a8d633fc6fbb2c5a4d5437c75438ec9} of property recovery. LeadsOnline enabled us to `knock one out of the park` in the eyes of the complainant, and made available the evidence we will need to file charges and send the suspect back to prison (again).”

“Although LeadsOnline has been an awesome tool for us over the past several years, it has been especially amazing the past three months (May, June and July 2012). Our agency has recovered over $7,500 worth of our residents’ stolen property over these few months. We had a total of seven victims who had their property returned to them because of this service. The staff of LeadsOnline is great and is always willing to lend a helping hand. If you don’t have this tool yet, don’t hesitate and get it NOW!!!!

“While checking routine NCIC hits, a stolen television was found from a burglary in one of our more prestigious areas. The corresponding investigation revealed two suspects from the same area, and ultimately led to their arrest for five residential burglaries. Without LeadsOnline, we would never have identified the suspects as they had no prior burglary arrests and weren’t on our radar. Thanks LeadsOnline!”

“From July through September I worked a burglary case with two suspects involved. LeadsOnline helped me recover property from the burglary. Items were stolen out of the house and sold on a different island. This information also helped me get a search warrant for the suspect’s apartment and vehicle. The suspects were arrested and one is still in jail. I was also able to give information to the victim’s family where a number of other items were sold, but not stolen, by one of the suspects who was a family member. The family was able to contact the shops and buy the items back for what the business had paid. A win/win for the business and the family!”

“In October I was assigned a burglary case where the suspect was caught on surveillance video entering a garage and stealing several power tools. The suspect was known by the victim.

“A man started a fight with his roommates and came out on the losing end. The two roommates were arrested. After the arrest, the ‘victim’ stole all the electronics from the two arrested roommates. The roommates filed a police report upon posting bail and included all the serial numbers from the stolen electronics. There were no eyewitnesses to the theft. I placed the serial numbers from the stolen items into LeadsOnline. Within two days, I received hits showing the items my suspect sold. I was able to go to the sale location and download surveillance video of the suspect and an accomplice. LeadsOnline made this portion of the investigation effortless.”

“In January, my victim’s home was burglarized by an unknown suspect. The suspect stole about $40,000.00 worth of jewelry. There were no signs of forced entry and no witnesses. The homeowner had a suspicion about who may have done it. During my investigation, I used LeadsOnline and found a transaction for the person the homeowner suspected. He had sold jewelry. My victim identified the jewelry as some of her stolen jewelry. The suspect was later arrested and admitted that he sold the jewelry at the business. He claimed that he got the jewelry from an associate who breaks into houses. When the suspect was arrested, he had additional jewelry on him that was later identified and returned to my victim.”

LeadsOnline is by far one of the best tools invented for a property crimes investigator.”

“While browsing around in the new format, I found one of my stolen property items. It was reported from a burglary investigation, which showed an NCIC Hit” pawned 9 days after the burglary I was investigating took place. The ticket window had the phone number listed for the person selling the item. I called the number and spoke to the person selling the stolen property. She agreed to come in and subsequently confessed to receiving the stolen property from her baby’s daddy (my burglary suspect). She also identified two other accomplices in addition to the identity of the suspect’s vehicle. “”

“While investigating a burglary of a vehicle, I used LeadsOnline and searched for numerous fiber optic cable analyzers that my complainant had serial numbers for. I received a hit on one and informed my complainant that I had only found one analyzer for him. I picked up the analyzer case from the pawn shop and later met with the complainant. When he opened the case he informed me that each component inside the case had its own serial number and that was why it appeared that I only found one item. He then proceeded to inform me that all of the fiber optic analyzers were there and that I had just recovered $31,000 worth of equipment for him. Thanks LeadsOnline.”

“I received notification of a serial number match that I had entered into the LeadsOnline system. Confirmation was made that this was the same camera that had been reported stolen in a residential burglary case. In researching for the female who pledged this camera in a local business, it was determined that there were 110 transactions from her over the past eight months. Comparisons of the property listed in her transactions and property previously reported stolen to our agency resulted in additional burglary cases being cleared and also led to the identification of a male subject who had been committing these burglaries and using the female to sell the stolen goods. LeadsOnline – YOU ROCK with this program!”
