Let me start by saying, me leaving the iPhone in a Taxi is clearly my own doing. I'm posting this just to point out the ignorance and disrespect for people's property that some people have. I'm hoping that by posting this the person who decided to be an asshole gets some karma sent back his way. My long term hope is that the phone winds up back in my possession. There are pictures of my son, friends, and family that I'd really appreciate having back.

On May 1st I took a taxi about 5 miles from 44th St and 9th ave in NYC to Jersey City, NJ. Soon after I realized I left my phone in the taxi and contacted 311 and All Taxi Management in NYC. Because I took the taxi from NY to NJ they claim it's out of their district to help me out.
