I haven't had the experience of the police being dishonest. I think if you turn it in and it isn't claimed within a certain time you may have dibs on it. Not sure if those laws are still around. But I know when we were really broke at one point, I lost $40 at the supermarket. I called them but it was never turned in. The following week a friend found $40 at the same market and didn't turn it in - it wasn't my money but I thought she was quite mean to whomever had lost it. That $40 bucks I lost was so critical to us.
