1. The police recovered my property, when will it be returned?

If your property is recovered by the police, it is regarded as evidence. As such, it is held by the Riley County Police Department until it is no longer needed as evidence(i.e. the case is concluded). Many times a photograph can be substituted and the item returned. The assigned attorney will make that decision.

2. Will I be paid for my stolen/damaged property?

If the Defendant is convicted, it is the policy of this office to request restitution on behalf of the victim for any stolen or damaged property. However, it is the responsibility of the victim to provide the information and supporting documentation. You can do this by completing the Victim Impact Statement in its entirety and including copies of receipts, estimates, and insurance information. Restitution is easier to recover before conviction than after.
