Yes. Sometimes hackers returned BTC under pressure of price that was on "their head" (for catching em, not killing or something like that). But i'm guessing those are very....very....very rare occasions. 99% of thefts go by without of any possibility of catching the thief.

There are some examples of caught hackers in this forum.
I'm almost sure to have read something about it recently here but at the moment can't find a link to the thread,
btw I'll update if I'll find something.

Yes, I've seen stories about people getting their money back after a hacker has taken it back for them and there are people here who specialise in that kind of thing if you give them a share of the loot, the problem is the media either don't know anything about it because they're stupid or the hackers that go after these big heists know how to cover their tracks.

Nowadays It's modern to speak about how bitcoin is not really anonymous but after all those bitcoins heists, hacks and what not, has anyone been actually caught, ever?
