Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Connecticut

Stolen IRA check
In May of 2004, I was encarcerated for a term of 18 months. I owned my home, in which I left my brother and sister to live in and take care of in my absence. Shortly after my incarceration, the paperwork for my Ira account came to the house and my brother forged the IRA withdrawal request. The company failed to compare signatures or verify request with my employer. They then issued a check to my home. My brother then went to a check cashing place and was allowed to cash this check with an out of state ID that did not belong to me. When I came home in October2005, and returned to my employer, I found out what happened. I immediately began contacting both the check cashing place and the investment firm. The check cashing place has even conceded the girl who cashed the check has been fired for stealing, and they have a picture of my brother and this ID he used. Yet, almost a year in a half later I am still getting the run around from both. Each say the other is at fault. I have filed a police report, filled out affidavits and done everything I was asked to do. My question is, who is responsible, who should we be going after ? And, is there a statue of limitations on these types of things?
