What police do with victim who request police to collect evidence if too expensive to obtain it?

Question

Let say crime itself is very minor misdemeanor. So suppose victim made police report and request police to spend several thousands dollars to collect the evidence.

Let say victims want police to do it anyway then what police do?

Example: let say in morning she was ready to leave for work, she noticed her vehicle tires got cut with knives to flat the tire. She knew it's her ex boyfriend because she had argue with him a night before. Now let say she requested police to take tire to lab and analyze the kind of knife and look for fingerprints on tire if her boyfriend did touch tire while cut the tire. Victim request boy to searching her ex to look for knives sharp edge to match the tire he cut. Those lab works cost thousands of dollars.

Answer 1

Many major policing agencies just don't pursue non violent crimes anymore. So the police would probably just shelf the complaint and give this victim the run around if she called to follow up on it. This victim needs to get a camera system capable of recording video so maybe the next time her ex does something she can hand over the proof. Some departments still wouldn't follow up on it. But this is what happens when police budgets are slashed in the midst of an explosion of crime. 

Answer 2

The victim does not get to request what evidence is collected.  

Answer 3

Innocent people say "misdemeanor."  Guilty people say "very minor misdemeanor."  Victims don't make requests of Police.  The Police presumably know their job.  If the "victim" wants evidence which the Police aren't collecting the "victim" retains a LICENSED private investigator who collects the evidence and hands it over to the Police.  The Police may or may not accept it.



The Police are far too busy to take your ex-girlfriend's (you've posted this before) tire to be "analyzed" and to take fingerprints.  Assuming I figured THAT part out, what does "Victim request boy to searching her ex to look for knives" mean?



I hope when you are in jail for this (and violating the protective order) that you learn how to speak English.
