For your typical residential internet, those online IP trackers only get down to the ISP level. That's because that's all the information about that IP address those trackers can obtain. A large enough organization will return an actual address, but that's because they register blocks of IP addresses. Nothing outside the ISP itself can truly give you a residential address linked to a dynamic IP.

Exactly, but only the police or the courts can retrieve the exact address from Time Warner.

Exactly. That means you don't actually have any IP to physical location evidence at all. All you have is an IP. You keep mentioning the courts but you didn't go to court, did you? The cops didn't investigate the address behind the IP, did they? So, until you have REAL evidence, stop trying to make the claim that you tracked down someone using something like GeoIP.
