First day using LeadsOnline leads to a win for the good guys
“I just started using LeadsOnline today, and I came across a familiar name. The individual has been hiding for some time due to a felony warrant. It just so happened they made a recent sale and gave a different address than what we had. I did some checking and it turned out the person was living at the address listed on the transaction slip. Needless to say, warrant served. Another great tool for the good guys. Thanks!”

“I’ve been a Police Officer for 15 years and I wish would’ve started using LeadsOnline sooner. A family in my town reported their adult sister missing who is homeless. Even though she’s homeless, she consistently checked in every month, sometimes twice a month. Three months had gone by with no contact, no social media usage, etc. The family was convinced that she may be dead. We found that she had sold items through the LeadsOnline database. Even though contact was never made, it brought relief to the family that she was still alive. Thanks, LeadsOnline.”

“A truck driver called 911 reporting 4 men were trying to break into his semi while he was parked on an off ramp on one of our highways. While the trucker was on 911, gun shots were heard over the phone and the truck driver claimed he had been shot and stabbed. During the 911 call, the truck driver whispered to the dispatcher “tell my wife I love her” and the call then went dead. When units arrived on scene they discovered the semi had several bullet holes through the driver door. The truck driver was lying in front of the semi with a superficial cut to his abdomen and no gunshot wounds. Evidence at the scene and the 911 recording did not side with the alleged victim’s side of the story. Investigators discovered during the investigation the alleged victim had filed similar reports in the past with the county he resided in. One of the many tools we use to determine the alleged victim’s truthfulness was the LeadsOnline Statement Analysis. The analysis of course determined the alleged victim was not telling the truth. The alleged victim was charged for numerous felonies and was later found guilty. Thanks, LeadsOnline!”

“Last fall, we were encouraged to register for LeadsOnline and take the tutorial. I called and started my tutorial with a LeadsOnline operator, who was very helpful in showing me how to navigate the system. When the operator showed me how to look up people from my city who were selling items, we both were a bit shocked at one of the results. We were taken aback at one of the results showing over 100 transactions in a very short time for one person. After completing the tutorial, I made the subject a person of interest and started following his activities. I started noticing a pattern of the stores in which he was getting gift cards from, and I contacted all of the stores. Long story short, the subject we located during the tutorial was a heroin addict who had as many as 15 other people working for him, stealing merchandise and returning it for the gift cards, which they were selling. After collecting as much information as I could, the case was turned over to the detective section, and they went and interviewed the suspect. He admitted to stealing the items, returning them, and getting the gift cards which he then sold. All-in-all, the suspect and his crew stole over $20,000 in merchandise over a period of a few short months, and used the money for drugs. The operation is now shut down and he is awaiting those charges while in jail on a probation violation. If it had not been for taking a few minutes to learn your system, this guy and his friends would still be out stealing, returning, and getting drugs for the stolen items. A big “thank you” to the LeadsOnline operator who helped find a case that would have never been noticed otherwise.”

Louisville Metro Police found the subject at the casino? You bet.
“A female reported her close friend missing after no one had seen or heard from her in about a week. Through investigation, I learned the missing female had a gambling problem and no one had seen or spoken to her in 7-8 days. A quick LeadsOnline search revealed the missing female had sold a cell phone at an ecoATM machine at a Kroger store located near Jack’s Casino in Cincinnati, OH around the same time she was reported missing. I contacted law enforcement at Jack’s Casino and they were able to locate the female. She had been at Jack’s Casino daily since she was reported missing. I was able to resolve this missing persons case quickly and put her friends and family at ease.”
