I left my camcorder in the park

It does seem likely that they're not returning it now then. 🤨

Unless someone else is trying to talk them into turning it in, and hasn't yet succeeded. 🫤

I'll hope for that slight chance. 🙄😔
 
No phone call from the police 3 days after the camera was taken.
I wrote a Letter to the Editor just now.

I inadvertently left my new video camera at the Naval Memorial Park in Rockingham on Tuesday 15th July.
To the person who found it and did not hand it to the police, I hope you get as much enjoyment as I had for the short time it was mine.
A person is judged by the actions they take when they think no one is watching.
Integrity is about making ethical choices. Your actions show that you lack integrity.
 
@Bretrick if you have household insurance it may be that you can claim for lost property. If not, it might be worth looking into it in the future.

I added personal possessions to contents insurance, it cost very little and included accidental damage and lost items. I made one claim and the insurance company reimbursed me the cost of my damaged camera without any quibbles, I didn't even have to send them the camera, just photos and the receipt. Without the insurance, it would have cost me almost £400 to replace.

It seems that whoever found your camera is not going to hand it in and, to be honest, I doubt that sort of character even knows what integrity is. :(

What if you found a camcorder without anything to identify the owner, how could you return to the owner? To be honest, I'd never think of turning it over to the cops. I'd turn it in at a "Lost & Found" office. I assume this was a public municipal park, somewhere there's a lost & found office.

There is no lost and found office.
The standard thing to do is to take anything one "finds" to the police station.

I remember reader's digest did a test on honesty of certain clerks and they turned in a purse with a $50 bill in it and of the 10 times they did seven times the money was still there three times it wasn't.

So it could be that maybe someone did turn it in but somebody had light fingers at the police station and I know some people think "How dare you think this!" it's like well, we've seen worse out of certain police.

Oh, check the pawn shops nearby if possible, could have been hocked.
