I hate this. Yes, my ex druggie also stole jewelry from me. I too live in Florida and the sheriff gave me the same line.
I do know that he has 1 piece in a safety deposit box that he has lost the keys to, would cost over $250.00 to have it drilled and I would have to contact him. Forget it, h*ll would freeze over B/4 I would contact him.
They are sneaky, your asleep and they are rifling through your drawers, jewelry, purse and everywhere else.
When I caught on, I got a safety deposit box, there my jewelry sat UNTIL I threw him out, now I enjoy my jewelry (what's left of it).
You can try and file a police report, doubt that it woud do much good.
