So I recently started working in LE as an IT specialist. The biggest issue is that there's more criminals than there are LEOs/detectives. So often you have to choose between working a physical crime or a digital one. If someone gets robbed of $50 at gun point, that usually gets more attention than $600k stolen by hackers. The reason is that a robbery is deemed to have more impact on the victim.
So yes, not every crime gets investigated. No, it's not because they just don't feel like helping people.
Also, some people think there are different people working on these types crimes. But because every criminal has a phone, a lot of work in physical crimes is digital. Therefore the amount of people working on on digital crimes is small and they often work on really large cases, like Darknet markets etc.
