Can I call to police or do something to punish my neighbor who is a thief?


Here's the story: I ordered a used iphone 5c off of amazon and the stupid Fedex man delivered it to a neighbor 2 doors down from me. Fedex figured out the problem after I called looking for the package. Fedex contacted my neighbor and told them to bring the phone to our trailer park's main office so it could be picked up by me. The trailer park supervisor brought it to me today and I found that the package was already opened and the iphone was missing the headphones and charger which were suppose to be included. The phone container was nasty and sticky.

After turning on the phone I found out it had been used. My neighbor it was delivered to took the iphone and activated it and registered it with icloud so that it now has an activation lock and can't be used by anyone. I know it was the wife of my neighbor because she had facebook pulled up and and logged into her profile. The email was also logged into and it was hers. There were time stamps saying she had used the phone yesterday after it had been delivered. Going through the phone I have overwhelming proof it was the wife. She was stupid enough to leave all her personal info on the phone and also the phone and it's case were sticky and covered in her fingerprints.

I got the phone back but it is a useless $300 phone bc/of the activation lock on it. I really wish I could punish her for stealing my phone but I don't think I can. Does anyone know anything I can do? Can I call the cops on her if I got the phone back?
