Has to be in the millions each year I imagine, hell Chicago alone has prosecuted entire units for doing that.

Don't know if things are any different than about 40 years ago, but ...

A good friend, no longer with us, a cop in a major city, had his wife adorned with some fine jewelry from various jewelry heists.

He confided in me ... "What the hell ... the insurance is paying it off anyway ..."

IF you're the first responder to a robbery, smash n' grab .. etc.

I don’t know but some of the really large homes in LA CA are cops.

I knew some now-DEA agents that got in it for this very reason. Finding millions in cash with nobody looking was their dream.

Then there's the tiny percentage of agents that are in it 'for the children'.
