Subject: Bad weekend - burglarized
|
My house in the suburbs on New Jersey got burglarized over the weekend. We were
at our condo near AC over the weekend. Total snatch and grab. They kicked the
door in and were gone in minutes. The bastards got about $10K of jewelry. They
left my big screen TV alone, thank god. My wife is distraught. They got her
wedding/engagement ring, her mother's engagement ring(inherited), her
grandmother's engagement ring, and an antique watch my grandfather gave me when
I was 5 (40 years ago) and he was on his deathbed.
What was bizarre was that my wife kept her father's ashes in a faux marble urn
on her dresser, and the scumbags took that too! Can you believe these assholes
stealing someone's ashes?
My wife is pretty distraught, and I'm just pissed.
Words to the wise:
1. If you have an alarm system - turn it on. Our foreign housekeeper didn't
activate it on Saturday before she left.
2. Hide your jewelry, or get a safe.

Once when one of my homes was broken into it blew my mind what they did not
take.
As example they took a pewter collection worth about 10K but not the $3000
camera sitting next to it.
They took a hangun but not the amno in the same box.
They took the microwave but not the TV.
Very strange.
Also the cops were pure assholes and tried to say it was my fault for having my
house surrounded by a wall because nobody could see in. Mind you the house was
on 10 acres with a 6 foot fence all around the property and the so called wall
was a brick wall around the back yard area enclosing the pool.

ON another note, what made you put in the word "foreign" in describing your
housekeeper? Why wouldn't or didn't you just say "Our housekeeper didn't...."
blah blah blah. Why did you put in the word "foreign"??

As one would with a good wine of course. The domestic help should never be

I said foreign, because despite numerous attempts, my wife can't teach her how
to activate the alarm system.
We think it's highly unlikely that the housekeeper was in on it. The housekeeper
came highly recommended from friends, and another house 2 blocks away got hit an
hour after ours did - by the same guys. The cops got matching footprints from
both houses, and the other house doesn't have a housekeeper.

You are fortunate enough to have 2 homes, at least $10,000 in jewelry and
a big screen tv (which thank god they did not take). Count your blessings
man. Many people will never have anything close to that in material
goods. Count your blessings no one was home and no one got hurt, and you
are probably covered by insurance anyway. Why wasn't your wife wearing
her rings? Sentimental value apart, you really didn't suffer too much. I
don't feel that sorry for u
BTW, where in Jersey do ya live?

I am not a bitch. I am a good person.I was trying to point out things to
be grateful for and looking at the big picture of life. Not trying to be
bitchy. I do feel sorry about the ashes.

Whoa. Regardless of what material goods have been accumulated through merit or
inheritance, the very nature of a burglary is a personal violation of one's
space. yes, good no one was bodily injured, but the fear that you may be home
if they decide to come back for items missed the first time is a very scary
thing to go through.
The hell with the material goods (other than the ashes and irreplacable
jewelry), the loss of peace of mind of being secure in your own abode is enough
to "feel sorry" for someone about, IMO.

Pretty much my thoughts. It could have been worse. Much worse. The jewelry has
mostly sentimental value. It could have been out of a crackerjack box and my
wife would have been upset. Taking my dead father in law's ashes really sucks,
though.

All I know is I had to watch my wife cry her eyes out when a burglar got
all her mom's jewelry. Insurance can't replace that. Logic regarding how
much it could have been worse doesn't really apply. Accept the fact that
the loss is painful to her and try to have some sympathy.

Maybe they have 2 housekeepers?
(ok, probably not the case).
anyway, sucks getting burglarized. When it happened to me they took alot (guns,
jewerly, a little cash, handheld TV I used for Cowboy games when I was
travelling on Sunday, etc.) the only thing that hurt was a gold coin ring my
mother gave me back in high school.

That's terrible and I sympathise. However, I have to admit that my
feelings about human nature being what they are, I would wonder about
the housekeeper being in on it. Not because she's foreign, not at all,
but because she's human.
Your words to the wise are, of course, quite correct.

Wouldn't the police focus on the housekeeper also?

That's terrible, but, it's just stuff. I don't get sentimental about any
stuff at all. I have stuff I like, like computers and tvs and whatnot,
but I have insurance and can replace it. A ring that my grandmother
owned? I have memories of grandmother, that's enough. If you get too
sentimental about too much stuff it only leads to sorrow that you don't
need.
However, yes, get a safe or safe deposit box. Leaving expensive easily
taken items around the house is asking to have them taken.

I wouldn't call his mother-in-law's remains 'just stuff', and I'm pretty
sure his wife also wouldn't refer to them in that fashion.

Some things can't be replaced... case in point ^^^

I have the remains of both my mother and father. I think they are in the
garage somewhere. I didn't buy urns, they are in the most "modest
receptacles" that the neptune society had. My father wants me to scatter
his ashes at a certain place, but I haven't gotten to it yet. Pretty
morbid holding onto ashes if you ask me. Those remains aren't my parents.
They are the ashes from the bodies that were my parents. Once they died,
their bodies were just dead bodies.
By the way, I'm donating my entire body either to UCLA medical school as a
cadaver or to that farm where they bury bodies to do forensic studies. I
DON'T want to be buried and I DON'T want anybody saving my damn ashes.

Your body isn't flammable anyway, is it?

A house, condo, and housekeepers. Sounds like you can afford to be
robbed. Go cry someplace else.

Let me get this straight. You can afford a housekeeper, but you can't
afford a safe deposit box? Also, you apparently trust your housekeeper
around that much stuff? But, hey, you live in New Jersey by choice,
right?

1. People sometimes pawn people off onto others.
2. Housekeeper may have a different morality to you that she has
towards your friends. Perhaps, they treat her better.
3. People's circumstances change. Maybe she needs the cash.
4. Do you have kids? Do your kids have teenage friends who knew you
weren't home?
Invariably, if it wasn't the housekeeper, it was a family member or a
teenager who lives on your street and knew you weren't home.
If you do buy a safe, bolt it to the floor.

For-get-about-it. I know Tony and the boys at the Bada Bing and they either
did it or they know who did. Regardless. I put out the word that you're a
friend of ours. You'll have your shit back in a couple of days.
