You can request it but there are no guarantees it’ll go through. Often it gets removed from your account and EIPs removed. You could try to mark it as stolen again, but it will just get unlocked again. The device is lost, this is why insurance exists, file a claim and buy a new device.

It expired 2 weeks ago. The insurance was like 20 dollars a month

Sorry to hear that. I wish there was more I could do to help. Complaining on Reddit won’t change the reality of smart device theft. You’re in general shit out of luck. Next step if you haven’t already is purchasing a new phone. You’re not “punishing anyone” by locking the phone as in a worst case the screen and other parts can be sold second hand to small repair shops.
