A couple of weeks ago, a home owner reported a break in to their house. Of course they made the neccessary reports to the police. Then their house was broken into again. Reports made again, but this time they had a suspects name to give to the police. It turns out that it was a neighbor 19 years old a couple of houses away. The homeowners saw their property being sold and called the police. Nothing was done and the suspect just laughed at the homeowner and told them that they couldn't do anything about it.

Just a few days ago, the homeowner called the suspect to tell him that they had a job for him to do. Once he showed up at the house, they invited him in. put handcuffs on him, and beat the crap out of him. They even broke his arm in the beating.

Now 3 of the homeowners are sitting in jail for felony assult and the thief is loose with only being charged for burglary.

I think if the police had acted especially after the second break in, this wouldn't have happened. Just too many laws protecting career criminals in their deviant behavior.

I was taught that just because you could be breaking the law on someone doesn't mean that they won't break a law in retaliation on you in return.

thiefs :mad:


But were the homeowners so foolish to think they could invite him over and beat him without getting into trouble :eek:


If your going to take the law into your own hands your going to have to be a bit smarter about it :rolleyes:

Re: Theif Caught, Homeowners in Jail

The actual theft must be observed or the cops can't do anything.

Property being sold must be positively identified or the cops can't do anything.

End plot was a good idea, just TOOPID!!! in implementation. As they (home owners)found out the hard way.

Re: Theif Caught, Homeowners in Jail

Im sick of cops that dont do their job. After my home was broken in to I did some checking and found out who did it. I called the so called investigator and told him I had some good information as to who did it but he wouldnt even talk to me . He said "Im busy right now and will call you back" He never did. A month later my suspect was arrested for yet another 2 or 3 breakins since mine occured .Another example is the cop who works at my wifes school. He will not walk around the school to let the students know that hes there but instead he hangs out in the front office all day and the kids know it. For the big money he gets you would think he would at least walk around a little.

Re: Theif Caught, Homeowners in Jail

I hear ya...Years ago i lived in an 8 unit apartment complex, and I parked my 2nd car in the back corner lot as I didnt drive it much. One morning a came out to go to work and my ex's car window was busted out and her cd player missing..I went to my car and the door lock was peeled, and my cd player was gone, plus I had a nice craftsman tool set in the trunk and a couple car ramps that also grew legs come up gone...well over 500$ in the 2 cars alone, plus other neighbors had stuff disappear.


Well like I said I parked in the very back way out of the way so I didnt take a tenants parking spot and such.. My car was the only thing out in the back row and it was like that for a few months. That same day I discovered it was broken into I found a pager under my rear tire....The only reason I found it,I was out inspecting all the damage and heard it go off. I called the pager company and they of course couldnt tell me who owned the pager, I called the numbers left on the pager and of course none of the crackheads friends would tell me who it was...I even took this pager to the police and they just blew me off like a tornado in kansas. I could see if my car was parked with everyone else the possablility of the pager being someone elses, but being back in the back, the only car, and it was under my rear tire not 2' from where my trunk lock was peeled, it was a dead giveaway......

I tried my best to find out who that jackass was that did it. I guarantee his angels were looking out for him. this was close to 9 yrs ago, and I doubt that crackhead could walk today if I would have found him.

I figured that had to have been a long time ago, as it was a pager. Gosh, do they still make those things?

Lived in the apt 99-2001 or somewhere there abouts.... Im sure an add wouldnt have done any good. I doubt the crackhead would even know what the paper was for....Other then to make his new window coverings in his apt.

Re: Theif Caught, Homeowners in Jail

As my neighbor likes to say, shouldda killed him and put a knife in his hands. Because dead men have a hard time refuting your claim of self defense.

Of course, that's why I have a security system at my house... someone comes near my house, their picture is sent to my phone and saved on an internet server... that way I don't have to rely on the cops to catch him in the act.

My boss had a good idea, they should have taken him for a ride into a rough part of town, take his clothes and kick him out. :D
