Let a friend leave a refrigerator on my back porch, cops came looking for him and the fridge (he wasn't there). I let them search the house without a warrant, and they took the fridge without arresting me. legaladvice

My prints are on it, i helped him get it through the back gate, i told them this. Apparently this jackass has been stealing appliances from newly built homes like crazy.

The cops acted like they knew i had nothing to do with any of the burglaries, and just wanted the thief. They took the fridge and no one got arrested.

This doesn't mean I'm in the clear though does it? I still had possesion of stolen property, I'd imagine the DA can still press charges on me. But don't they have to prove i knew it was stolen? The cops steadily acted like me being cooperative was gonna make them just go after jackass burglar.

Edit: in TX
