Re: ''investigation''

Absolutely they should have checked out your side of the story. However, it is good for your case that they did not because on cross examination your attorney can make clear to the jury that they did not. Juries do not like sloppy police work. Take the pictures yourself immediately! Contact me directly for representation. Good luck.
