I know someone who's motorbike got stolen in Atlanta and the cops tracked the lo jack, then initiated a high speed chase that included a helicopter and briefly shut down part of the atlanta airport. They found the bike dumped in a forest near the airport and it ended up totaled out. This was a new bike, but like, an 8k one. When the person asked the cops why they went through all of that for such a cheap bike, they straight-up said they like causing high speed chases and exercising authority.
It's not about the money, it's about them getting to be cruel on your dime and you not having any recourse to stop them. They get off on that.
Cops are the largest gang in the world. And like all gangs, they have to flex their power so nobody tries to take over their territory.
