    my wife and i were robbed on friday night at a theme park. it was a couple that stole her purse. they were both booked for petty larceny.......anyways....i have recieved 2 calls today from the detention center they were in letting me know they made bond and were released today.

    is that a normal procedure because we are the victims? or is it something more serious like a warning because they threatened us in jail or something? my wifes worried. and they both live within like 2-3 miles from us

    so its something thats worrying us.

    thanks!

    Do the police where they were being held know you were threatened by these people?

    I'm not sure if it's a normal procedure or not, but I would guess that it's abnormal to be on the safe side until you find out otherwise.

    That is not uncommon. We had our car stolen as a child. I guess because of their record they did a couple of years. when they got out they called my father to let him know.

    If you were threatened I am sure they would let you know. It would also mean extra charges. I wouldn't worry about it.

    was this not a random crime? were they caught immediately? im not sure why they would tell you unless these people know who you are or if there is any procedural stuff left for you to do.

    i dont really know though. is it necessarily bothering you?

    Sick, it is a cover their *** move, your wife's purse got stolen, in it was her wallet, I assuming, and in that is a license with an address to your residence.

    It is usually a courtesy call on the detention center/atty generals office part that they do for victims. Usually the AG's office has a Dept. with the office handing such matters of victim advocacy.

    I received a call when my wife was released. My parents were the victims of CC fraud recently and were called when the guy who committed the crime was released. I think it's SOP.

    NP. I really think they want to take you into the woods and bury you up to your neck, spill honey over your head and let the ants eat you. But I didn't say that because you already sounded like a scared little ***** in the OP.

    They let you know because you are the victim. If these people were going to try and retaliate against you or something, better to know they are out then to get blind sided when you were not looking. Most likely nothing to worry about. They did have your wife's purse with personal items, address, etc. Just keep an eye out, be aware of your surroundings, etc. Most of all don't worry it is most likely nothing.:up:

    I have not read the replies but I was a police officer/ detective for over 12 years.

    Yes, it is not uncommon for the agency who is investigating the alleged offense to keep the witnesses up to date.

    For the record, if the purse was taken in close proximity to the victim, the charging agency should have charged Robbery as the primary offense.

    i was on a rollercoaster when it happened, the only charge i saw was petty larceny. which i dont understand because from what i understand petty larceny is under 500$ worth of stuff. there was MORE than 500 worth of stuff in the purse...

    Actually it is fairly common for victim's of crimes to be notified. In the agency that I work for, victims used to receive a phone call that would let them know about the change of status. I would not worry about any threats that were/were not made regarding you and your wife. Alot of the notification procedures will vary depending on the agency though.
