I can't understand how can the managers treat their customer's this way!!!!

This is a very sad story here. I was staying at a hotel with my family. Well, we left the motel for two days.. Because we did not have the money to pay for those days. Since we left our clothes in the room even if we are not staying there, then we still would be charged for the room. Well, for two days we only owe $80.00 for the room. But, the manager is saying that we owe more than this amount. She says that we owe $200.00. So, we ask for a receipt, she is telling us that she can not give us one. How can we pay a fee for something that we have no proof of? If we really owe that amount, which we know that we don't, then why can't a receipt be shown? Okay, so we come back two days later, and they would not let us in the room. We wanted to get our personal belongings. They would not let us in the room. Well, the only way that we could pay them is if they let us in the room. So, some personal information was in the room that would help us to pay for the room, well then they decided to let us in the room. When we finally went into the room, we noticed that my microwave was gone. And so was their big screen T.V. We approached them about this, and they told us that my mate pawned it. Which he did not. We did not have the key to that room, only the manager and the housekeeper does. We were away from the room for two days, and during those two days we had no way of getting into the room. So, when my mate sees that my microwave was stolen he decides to not pay them any money. And then we were not allowed to get our clothing and anything else private that was in the room. So, my mate when down to the police station to file an incident report about the microwave being stolen. The detective never called him back after this. So, a few weeks went by and after the calling and us going up to the office, we still could not get our things. Well, that is when I got fed up, I called the police so that they could possibly escort us to get our things. And he came with another cop to the motel. Well, I had to stay outside while the police went to talk to the managers. After talking, he came out to tell us that they said we owed them $200.00. And if we don't pay them the money by next week, that they would put our items out on the street. Well, my mate decided already that he was not paying them anything. He wanted the microwave back, because he knew that they had stolen it and taken it out of the room. He said that if he pay them anything it would be $80.00 only. Our things were in the room just for those two days. And a week went by, still there was nothing put out on the edge of the street that week and the week after that. So, now it has been almost a month from that time, and still we cannot get our personal items from the motel. I know that they still have it. They did not put anything to the road. They just told the police that just to scare us and make themselves look good. So, as of this day, the managers are still holding all of our personal items from us. There is clothing, a digital camera, a printer and T.V. And private things of mines that no one has seen. How can someone be so mean? Surely money is not worth this much. How can someone hold anyones personal items from them over $200.00? I want our things back. I have items from Christmas that I got for my kids that were taken out of the room. And the bad thing about it, they would never let us get our things from the room when we asked, and instead they took them out of the room themselves. This is the worst situation that I could ever be in. Even if we begged and cried for our things, the managers still will not give us our things back.
