I am some what upset with the local detective who handles this case. He told me the trainee had pawned a ring a few weeks before. He would not even provide the name of the pawn shop. The girl could have had someone else pawn for her in their name but he did not even check it out when I sent him a photo of the bracelet. I could have gone there and identified the bracelet.

That seems like a very legitimate complaint. It would seem that if a suspect has a history of pawning jewelry, that notifying pawn shops to be on the lookout for a recently stolen item that may have been taken by that suspect would be absolutely required. Care to share with us the name of the police agency and the officer who treated you thusly? Perhaps the investigation is not done. Are you aware if there has been a search done of the suspect's home and car looking for the jewelry and pills? Perhaps the cop is doing more than you are being told but even so, I don't understand why they would not share a simple detail like "we sent your photo of the item to all the pawn shops in the area" if they did.
