This is 100% false. You can serve up all the evidence on a silver platter the the police will ignore it. I know, I've tried, specifically in a stalking case. They don't care.
Police in the US exist mainly to suck up tax money and harass and murder civilians and escalate peaceful protests into riots to justify suppression and murder. They're merely an instrument of an increasingly authoritarian government.
Yeah, if you gave police here a complaint with all the evidence in the world, there is absolutely no obligation for them to investigate or take any action. And there's really no recourse.

e.g. for all of the BigTech brilliance plenty of them fall for mildly complex phishing efforts or bribes, etc.

Most simple criminals get away with their crimes. Anyone with any level of sophistication does as well.
