This knee jerk reaction, regardless of the facts is very tiresome. Yes, easy and basic precautions can help avoid these outcomes. It did not in this case and we should not have to live constantly on guard.

Oh, but you'll have to live constantly on guard when you live in an area with a court system that's lenient when dealing with criminal behavior, makes excuses for criminals, and releases repeat criminals..

Scary. To the people dismissing it: yeah, it’s all ‘no big deal’ until it happens to you, or someone you love.

Obviously we need to defund the police and hire violence interrupters to stop stuff like this. Because as we all know, the only thing that won’t stop this is finding, arresting, convicting and sentencing the perpetrators. Nah. Anything but that.

This is really weird and very atypical. Most burglars want to pick a home where people are out (which is why workday, vacation days, etc. are usually the popular picks). Or a home is particularly targeted after being cased or because they know the owner. Or occasionally they are just High out of their mind.
I wonder if it will turn out that the owner knows these guys somehow — certainly doesn’t seem like a crime of opportunity.

People search for the self soothing explanations.

All are not welcome?

Social media has increased our awareness of these incidents. I know of a similar home burglary in the Hamlet neighborhood of McLean a few years ago. It didn’t garner this level of attention because it wasn’t publicized on SM. Also happened to the house across the street from me. And we were burglarized as well. It happens more than you realize. People don’t generally talk about it.

At least they were masked.

They forced entry into the locked house, moron.

Yeah they didn't look high. They looked like they knew what they were doing and didn't seem all that concerned about being caught, either.

Why not? If I were burglarized I would talk about it.

So ... now it’s a competition for who has the worst crime?
