Walking past the scene of the crime must feel a little weird yet huh?
It seems home invasions are all over and can happen anywhere. By outsiders in a secure neighborhood.
The recent hood I left was very solid, well mix of people and everyone knew each other blocks around. Old and young. About 5 years before I moved, we had a spate of b&e's, almost exclusively vacation homes at night. I don't remember any of them had people at home.
I was casual friends with my immediate neighbor who had the house at the end of my street, I was next house n/e of him. His son and daughter were both drug addicts since high school and now in their early 30's. The son had spent more time in prison than on the streets and the daughter barely kept herself functional, but she was employed on and off. They both lived at home since I had moved in.
I noticed when my neighbor went to his place up north, the son was active after midnight and people coming and going at his dad's place. My city's cops knew this guy's first name and he was tagged. Being a aux police officer then I wasn't surprised to see the sons pic on the wanted or 'aware' board with a mark on his head. Cops would put an x on their forehead when the perp was arrested or taken off the streets.
One night I saw the son down the block come out between two houses at 4 am and I knew one was on vacation and get into his junk car and drive away and turn at the end. I called it in and around 4:30 I heard stuff outside and there was 3 squad cars, the sons car and he and another guy in the back seat of a unit.
A unit was parked in front of my house and an officer was standing by it and I came out. He started to say "Sir, everything's okay and you don't need to come out" and then I ID myself, we knew each other and he laughed and said, nice call.
Turns out they were in the area and found him a block over packing stuff into his trunk with another guy just coming out of a house with an armful of stolen goods. He had loaded his fathers house full of stolen merchandise and was fronting it from the house. He is supposedly in prison for life now that I heard recently. Too many arrests or something.
And the sad end of the story is his Dad tried everything to help the kids and when he asked his son why he does drugs and doesn't want to get off them, he said because he likes to do drugs. Period.
2 years before I moved, the son and daughter were freebasing in the house and burned it down. They all got out. My neighbor moved to the north.
Crime can be anywhere.
