Q: my ipad mini was stolen just this afternoon at around 4:00-4:30 in the afternoon. Can the thief change my apple ID and password? How can I retrieve my ipad mini? Is there any other way to get it back from that bad guy?

Unless you had Settings > iCloud > Find My iPad enabled on it then there isn't any way to try and locate it. If you did have it enabled then you could try locating it either via http://www.icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone app on another iOS device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network.
You've reported it to the police ? You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc., and if it was a cellular model then also contact your carrier.
