The sheriff's department in Ohio took my safe that had my guns and jewelry inside they took it and said they were gonna get a search warrant they found nothing in the safe they took my firearms and jewelry and never returned any of it
Hello Jason, it sounds like you're dealing with a serious issue. In Ohio:
*. Law enforcement is required to return property if it's not needed for evidence.
*. If they refuse, you can file a "motion for return of property" in the court.
Have you attempted to retrieve your belongings from the sheriff's department?
Yes they have and they said the detective on duty was not there at the time so I had to return I returned to the sheriff's department about * or * times and then they never give my stuff back
I see, Jason. If the sheriff's department is not returning your property, your next step is:
*. File a "Motion for Return of Property" in your local Ohio court.
*. If unsuccessful, consider legal action with a lawyer.
For court details, can I have your city of residence?
