Friend walked in on a burglary.

So I saw my buddy post on FB about how criminals shouldn't break into a house with Pro 2A signs, ADT signs, etc. I called him up to see what happened and here's the story:

He got a call from ADT at work saying that the alarm was going off, they coudn't hear anything but a dog barking and should they call the cops? He told them to alert the cops and he headed home. He got there before the cops and could hear his dog barking upstairs. Fortunately, he had his 9mm with him. He went into the house slowly and since he left music playing (for his dog), the perps didnt even hear him come in. Caught them piling his movies, PS3, etc into a bag. He instructed them to get on the floor at which point, one started crying (17 yr old and 18 yr old). As they waited for the cops to arrive, he made them take their cell phones out, put it on speaker and call their parents. LOL! Cops showed up, he told them the that parents were on their way which amused the cops, to say the least.

Once the parents showed up, one assured my friend this wouldn't happen again. "I didn't raise my child to be like this" type response. The other parent called him a racist, violent asshole. Yup, that's right. No charges pressed because nothing was stolen and nothing was broken. But he was the "bad guy" according to the parent. I tell ya...some kid's parents.

Stay safe out there people.

No charges pressed? That'll teach them.

um why didnt youre friend press charges again?

What? No charges? No laws broken? This country is broken! Has the law enforcement community gone insane? Sorry, I forgot Obama is in charge...

B&E. Especially after the parent comment crap.

P.S. He should expect a summons very soon from that cumb dunt.

dumb, should have sent them to jail.

He just mentioned that he didn't want to have to deal with court and stuff. :shrugs:

My guess is the kid whose parent called him racist is the leader and probably the older one. The younger one is probably the one that started crying and was just trying to be cool. This is the second time his house has been broken into since he's lived there. I'd be looking for a new place to live.

Exactly!! Those little dirtbags will do it again "cause nothing happened"!!! I'm afraid that this will be the cycle of life from now on. The next time, please press charges on these SOB's so that the rest of us don't have to deal with them in the future.

Should have shot them.

Next time the B&E his place they're going straight for the gun collection. Who needs cd's and stereo when we gotz 9mm Yo

FWIW: His first mistake was entering an unknown scenario. Two kids in view where was #3 or 4? Not knowing the situation, wait outside. Hero's usually end up injured or dead.

What's this shit with ADT asking him if he want's them to call the cops. WTF he paying them for?

Wtf! He should have pressed charges after he shot them. JK! At a minimum he should have pressed charges.

How did they get in if nothing was broken? Did he inform the 911 operator or responding officer that he had the BGs held at gunpoint?

Do I know this person?

Most alarm companies ask. Mine knows what sensor is tripped and asks if they should call the cops. I've forgot to lock up the dogs and they tripped the main level motion. So I told them it was the dogs since no exterior doors or glass breakage was detected. Plus I was just down the street.

P.S.

He needs a new dog.

House broken into twice. No charges pressed. Sounds like your friend gets what he deserves for B&E #3

Your friend needs to be slapped, and needs to get a new dog.... This only taught the kids that they *can* get away with this shit. He did no one any good. It was probably the same people who did it the first time. I also wouldn't be surprised if his house was hit a third time at this point, especially by the kids that know he won't shoot them, and know the dog is worthless. FAIL

Clearly a 2nd degree burglary took place, did the victim not want to press charges or did the police make that decision?

He should have filed a police report and requested the DA to file charges. He could have then worked with the DA for diversion if they were eligible. Also covers his ass more if the parents come back to sue. Been down this road for different but similar situations. When you use any force CYA. What we think is cut in dry proper may not be in a judges mind. Hit both bozo parents in the pocket book. Diversion is not cheap that is if they are eligible. If they cant get diversion then they are douches eho have made other mistakes. Id suspect the kid with the dad throwing out the racecard falls in the douche catecory. Dad has given him excuses for his criminal behaviour.

i dont think its too late to file charges

^^^^^Response # 7.^^^^^^^^^^^

I'm confused (Surprise) He's a gun owner, has a security system THEN DOESN'T WANT THE HASSLE OF COURT AND STUFF??[facepalm]Might want to fill him in on what happens If he needs to use that shootin iron of his. Doesn't want the hassle he might as well cancel the ADT and sell his gun. He ain't seen hassles yet. ESPECIALLY now they know he has guns.

Yep, when #3 happens the kids will have reinforcements, possibly one of the parents as well.

Time for him to move out of Aurora, think i might slap him for not pressing charges!

^^^^^^ ALL OF THIS!

Your friend should read this article. Soldier and his pregnant wife killed by teen during a burglary. http://gazette.com/teen-sought-in-ki...article/149809

Sounds alot like BS to me...

Several laws were broken. Should have pursued charges. It wasn't their first time. It won't be their last.

Here is a recent event where the suspects got less charges that the person who caught them in the act. http://m.now.msn.com/jesse-daniels-a...dals-in-closet

His word against their word.

He didn't want to deal with court? All he would have had to do was show up, and say "yep, I caught them". Case closed. I completely forgot about what happened with my friend (posted it a while back) till I was tellin my wife about your retarded friend, and she brought up mine. He was an Army Ranger, random guy forced entry when his buddy was there with him, the gave the guy a beating he will never forget. Anyway, it was a couple hours in court, the guy went to jail. Case closed. The more I think about it, this had better be some made up shit, because people as stupid as your friend really piss me off....

thats bullshit! PRESS CHARGES! What the hell is wrong with people????? Might as well give em keys to your house cause now they think they are untouchable

See my replies. The guy has a gun on them, hold till LE arrival then puss's out because he "didn't want the hassle"

I doubt Dave_L is tossing out shit. Perhaps a "Link" to the FB page. Then all you social media folks can razz his friends ass there.

Soooooo much fail in this one.


1. Rushed in on crime in progress.
2. Called parents. While this may seem funny, or like a sweet revenge, it sounds like a mistake to me. What sort of parents would you expect them to be? You are inviting an altercation, vandalism, revenge, etc.
3. Didn't press charges. You think this experience will change them? Not a chance.

Didn't read th whole thread but what about felony 1st degree criminal tresspass? Nothing needs to have been taken. Or burglary, unlawfull entry with the intent to commit a crime therein. Sounds bogus. Also It's not up to him if charges are pressed on the juvenile.

He sure showed them!



/sarcasm. Fucking fail all the way around. What a dumbass. My guess they'll be back.

Please tell me you're being sarcastic. My meter is busted today.

Wow no way I wouldn't press charges.

No big deal at all.
Instead of an hour or so in court the next thing he gets to deal with is an armed home invasion.
What could go wrong?


Shoot the kids? No, they still have a chance at becoming productive citizens.
Now the parent that called him a "Racist" is another matter though.......

Definitely should have pressed charges. Get the little shits turned around or locked up.

As for the pup...not every dog is a protection K-9.

Hope Dave's buddy is full of BS, if he is not then he is another good example of why our country and society are failing.

Pretty sad when a small amount of our time is too expensive to stand up.
