Recently discovered one item, sold at a major AH in 2019. I’d emailed the auctioneer -haven’t heard back. Also, filed a police report, finally. But the cop isn’t very confident or knowledgeable understandably.

Feeling SOL, and just looking for some guidance or advice. Thanks, S
I assume you were in MA when the items likely were stolen? 6 year statute of limitations I believe for larceny assuming it wasn't a violent crime. Even if you're timely, I think it will be uphill to say the least to get law enforcement interested with only one tip from years ago on one item. No harm trying though.
