429 Too Many Requests

Hello, can anybody advise? I have got possession of a iPAD pro, from a woman who worked at a rehab facility, who somehow got possession of this iPAD pro from a resident (patient?) It is obvious this was not returned to him/her, the patient. This woman gave it to me in hopes my very smart kid could unlock it, as it is locked with username and pass code. I would like to return it to the person who it belongs to. How do I do that? I do not know when they were admitted, or anything about that. Is there a way to use the numbers on the backside? I really think it was a crappy thing to do to someone that already has problems, and then someone that should be helping steals from them. What can I do to find the owner? Please help me return this to that poor soul.

Hello,


Unless you know who they are then there is nothing you can do to find the iPad's owner. The best way would be to turn the iPad into your local authorities as this device is useless to you.

This iPad is useless to you or anyone but the original owner. The rehab facility might know who it actually belongs to. Otherwise, recycle it at an Apple store.

I have no clue to who the owner is, and I know it is useless to me or anybody but the owner. Can the authorities return it to the owner?
