A woman tracked down the LAPD officer who stole her debit card when she was in their station. She got photos of him using it at a Home Depot and somehow convinced the LAPD to start an internal affairs investigation. The officer in question has been arrested, and hopefully, the police learned a thing or two about investigating a crime.
