Home Invasion Footage

Wednesday, June 26th, 2013

This nanny-cam footage of a home invasion in Millburn, New Jersey should make your blood boil:

A significant number of criminals report that they feel a sense of accomplishment when they commit a crime:

Let me put that in terms you’ll understand: Think about how you felt when you graduated from college, or when you bought your first house, or when you snagged that promotion you worked so hard for, or when you lost that extra weight, or when you completed that big project. Think about what it did for your self worth. Think about what it did for your mood. Do you have it in your mind? Good.

That’s how this guy felt after beating that defenseless woman bloody in front of her small child.

Now I ask you:

Are you willing to let that into your home unchallenged? When that breaks into your home are you going to assume it just wants your jewelry and DVD player? Or perhaps the medications your recently deceased husband was taking to ease his pain from terminal cancer? Are you going to let them have free reign and hope they don’t hurt the people you love?

When a criminal kicks in your door you do not have the luxury of assuming they’ll go away and leave you unhurt if you just give them what they want. You don’t have the luxury of waiting for 911 or the alarm company to send help.

    An interesting video. He’s clearly having fun smacking the woman around. He’s a big muscular looking guy and he hits her what must be dozens of times and she’s still conscious and is described as having only some stitches and a concussion? If he had been genuinely trying to kill or maim her rather than terrorize her, she would have been a lot worse off. (My sister has sustained in soccer more serious injuries than the woman did.)

    Oh, absolutely, it could have been much, much worse.
