Gold rings returned to elderly woman after stolen by neighbor

“Oregon, Ohio PD Detectives used LeadsOnline to track down gold rings stolen out of an elderly woman’s home. They were very dear to her. The rings were located at one of our local shops shortly after they were taken. The suspect was a neighbor of the woman that had come and asked to use her telephone. The suspect was also a heroin addict with outstanding warrants. The elderly victim was very happy with our results, and without this service, the ring would not have been recovered, or at the very least it could have been delayed.”

2-for-1 deal: LeadsOnline assists investigator in two arrests

“An investigator with the Hanover County Sheriff’s Office was assigned to investigate the theft of three rings from a residence under repair. He obtained the names of all the contractors that came to the house during the time-frame of the theft, and checked them through LeadsOnline. The person of interest had sold two rings. The investigator interviewed the suspect and obtained a confession. The suspect stated that he had sold the stolen rings during the same transaction at the same business. Based on previous issues with the owner of this gold store, the suspect was wired up and sent back to the store in an attempt to get back the stolen property he had sold the owner of the gold store. The owner made several incriminating statements and even searched the suspect for a police wire before finally agreeing to sell the stolen property back to the suspect for twice the value. The owner of the business was arrested for possession of stolen property, falsifying sales records, and obstruction of justice. LeadsOnline not only helped solve the originally investigated grand larceny, but also helped with the arrest of a dishonest gold dealer.”
