Held funds after identifying scammer returning all payments and receiving death threats? No escalation.... How?

I have 3 open cases one that has been open for 11 days now and one that was just opened today. As of last night the scammer began sending me death threats and telling me he would kill my family. Intuit has done nothing to escalate the case given the severity- I have a patrol car parked outside my house for protection and intuit is holding over $5,000 dollars. All of my families money so we can't even leave the house or town for protection. They have done nothing to realize the severity of the situation and I am so frantic. Not to mention Christmas is 3 days away and we can afford nothing and my employees can't be paid. I am honestly scared for our lives based on the pictures this guy sent me. I submitted them in the request- I am so scared for my family right now and have nothing because of this person but fear for our lives. This is one of the worst experiences of my life and even the police told them to release the funds so we can leave town. Still zero escalation and "48 hours" Not that assuring when one case hasn't been addressed in 10 days.

I am heartbroken and scared for my family- this was so cold of them to handle this this way after 5 hours on the phone and even speaking with a detective. Praying to god they actually release them immediately so we can be somewhere safe. How is this how you treat a customer in a dangerous situation?

Solves nothing and was given the run around with your support team who reads the same script after being on hold for 5 jours

Solves nothing after being on support for 5 hours and speaking to supervisors who promised me funds would be released and didn’t happen. All recorded with their permission fyi. 

you’ll probably block this attachment but this is the threat- 2 days before Christmas and I have a patrol car protecting our house. I’ve lost faith in your company for not even trying to understand the seriousness of this- or maybe this happens often. Either way I will be pressing charges and the recordings will come to light
