    Had to call the wife to check the police report. No, his wallet was not stolen. Just his cellphone (my error in the first post).

    Also, these people didnt take any jewelry. Tiffany jewelry, at that. They would take the time and multiple trips to hustle out the electronics and handbags, but not pocket the jewelry sitting on the dresser?!
    Easier to sell.

    Thank you, but it doesn't really matter to me. She will take issue with anything I say, no matter how it was meant. Oh well, I ain't losing sleep over it.
    Oh, please. I didn't even realize it was your post until after DarkReign responded -- the use of "she" and "her" is what inspired me to go back and look at the original post.

    I usually don't buy these stories. Are you supposed to believe that two guys who didn't know the sitter thought he wouldn't be a problem just because he passed out?

    I'd imagine anyone worth his salt would at least tie his ass up.

    So, all in all, our losses look like this...

    (20+) Coach/Louis Vuitton purses/handbags/wallets = ~$10k+
    (1) Bad-ass, liquid cooled, custom painted computer = $7k
    (1) One generic Dell computer = ~$2k
    Xbox 360, 4 games, 2 controllers and a charge station = ~$700
    PS3, 2 controllers and a charge station = ~$600
    Wii system, 4 controller, 2 nunchuks, 2 charge stations = ~$500
    All my HDMI cables, Component cables = ~$200
    JVC surround sound system = $800 (5 years old)
    Total: ~$22,000.00
    That is a lot of stuff. Hopefully the dollar amount involved will force the police to pursue it a bit more than someone who just lost a TV or something.

    Talk to the county prosecutor's office as well, if the cops aren't going after it hard enough to suit you.

    The police might not be elected, but the prosecutor is, and that give you a bit more leverage to get some action.

    , I just remembered that...our ing pictures....oh man...
    That is my worst nightmare!

    Which is why a couple of years back I started backing up our entire system at 3 separate locations..... just in case of fire, robbery, user error.

    I could bear losing the electronics and money, that's easily replacable.

    But I'd kill the er that was responsible for taking away those precious momentos of family memories.

    All very good ideas. So far, lets just say I am not too impressed with the police.

    But I fall just north of city jurisdiction (as in, across the street). Its the sheriff's department case (an elected position). Depending on how today goes, this is good info to have.

    The more and more I start down this line of thinking, the more it tends to make more sense than the alternative.

    But thats just because I want retribution, I think...lest my retribution be misplaced.

    The tapes will show.

    , when I think about it, I have the last pictures of my father on that computer.

    Bad day just got worse.

    I'm probably looking at around the same dollar amount of crap in my house(just swap the coach purses for electronics, my wife's a tech geek), which made it a no brainer to get video surveillance. You might think of that after you've worked through this ordeal to get that "secure" feeling back.

    This absolutely ing sucks, sorry to hear about it.

    People that rob other people's homes should be ing killed.

    If it makes you feel better DR, a buddy of mine in Tampa had his house robbed a couple of weeks ago in the middle of the day. His pets were left ok as well but they caught the ers a week later. So maybe this will end up with a happy ending as well.

    Just remember he is ur friend. You trusted him enough to watch ur in the first place. Seek him out,give him a hug and tell him its ok. Those guys might have raped ur friend and he is to embarass to tell anyone,perhaps thats why he checked into rehab.

    Or option B: Have him put to sleep.

    Sorry to hear that Dark. You've always been a classy poster on ST. At least your dogs are ok and you and yours are in good health, though that doesn't take away from how much this SUCKS.

    Hindsight is 20/20, but you could've gotten a nice video security setup with the money spent on a couple of those purses.


    How long have ya'll lived at that house? I know that I was never able to get that "secure" feeling back after I had my cars broken into.

    I sold 2 cars after they were broken into, just because I was constantly thinking about the thieves going through it.

    I still believe that the "friend" was in on it.

    It would be one thing for the theives to overhear him bragging about having a nice house to house-sit.

    But cmon, to take a chance on just someone bragging and knowing for sure what kind of loot there was are two different things.
