I guess they never bothered to leave a message. Also I pointed it about early in the thread (so about 2 years ago...) but how shitty was the cop? Knocks on the door a few times then says "welp, nobody here! I'm out".

I'm not sure the legality of this, but if the Mcallisters were certain that Kevin was home, could they not authorize a locksmith to enter their home (maybe with a policeman present as well) to check on him?

lol this is the most glaring hole in the movie. Seriously if you weren't sure where your kid was in that situation you could have somebody inside your house in 15 minutes. What type of dbag cops just blow that off. In a rich suburb like that that'd be the big event of the day. Jesus tell your friend to go throw a brick through the window if necessary. There's no excuse not to get someone inside.
