Some People Suck.

[Stradawhovious]

My house was broken into on Friday. The chicken**** bastards shattered in a window, and took a bunch of stuff. Thankfully nobody was home and nobody was hurt but the situation really irritates me. But...... Its only stuff, right?****ing ****ers. I hope the cops get them, and they are old enough to try as adults.

damn.. sorry man. I hope it is not too bad. You still have all of your camera equipment?

Yeah, that goes with me to work, so I still have the camera stuff. The dogs kept them to the basement level only, so it could have been worse, but its still really aggravating.

We got broken into and came home to find the guy still in our house.

Believe me when I tell you I understand...and how it does really suck.

A lot.

Our case went to trial and my wife and I had to testify. The guy got 5 years.

At least in our case there was a resolution.

^^ pooor choice of words ^^

Dude, it really does suck...it's a personal violation. I do my best to prevent home theft, locks on bedroom doors, insurance, etc but if someone wants it, they're going to get it and there's little else one can do to prevent it.

Never happened to me, so I can't really relate, but I'm on my third bike in 6 months atm. But as you say, if they want to get it, they will get in.

Sorry to hear that kind of news! And yes, some people do suck!

Here's what sucks worse:

Years ago, I had a bunch of tools stolen from my truck. Dutifully called the local constabulary and made a report. That done, I then filed a claim with my insurance carrier for replacements. Three weeks later, I get a check so I can go buy new tools.

A month later, the cops call, wondering if I'm home (uh, well, duh.... yes! This was before cell phones!) Uniformed officer arrives with some of my tools for me to identify. "Yes, those are mine.... see my initials stamped in them?" Seems the barstard broke into 47 vehicles that night, stealing anything and everything. He was caught red-handed with a bunch of the booty in the trunk of his car. But I don't get my stuff back... they 'need them for evidence'.

The insurance company then sends me a letter saying, in effect, since the property was recovered, I need to pay them back. Begrudgingly, I do.

Fast forward 7 years. The county attorney never does prosecute the scumbag..... for anything! Once the statute of limitation expires, I call and ask for my tools back. Turns out, the city claimed it was 'abandoned property' and sold it all at a public auction.

I wish you a happier resolution, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

I'm sorry, but I laughed a little.

But that has to suck - hard!

 

[StringThing]

Yeah, that really sucks. We have 2 dogs but they also can't reach all areas of the house. I hope they nail them.

The key to any security is to make yourself a harder target than your neighbor.

Ah crapoy. I'm glad to hear no one was home... I hope the perps get what they deserve... Throw the book (or 20 books) at them.

The TRUE key to security is to not own anything. If you don't have it, it can't be stolen.
