I was on the golf course the other day and we got to talking about Home crimes. People are funny to me, they were saying that " oh crime doesn't happen in my neighborhood." or " my neighborhood is quiet and secure." When people say things like this I just laugh cause I know better.
According to the FBI, a burglary occurrs somewhere in the US every 15.4 seconds. By definition, the crime that occurs when we are not at home. However, becoming burglary victim can leave a family feeling helpless, violated and vulnerable.
Let me try to shed some light on who an why this type of crime is committed.
Most of the time these crimes are done during daytime hours when people are at school and work or even vacation. The summer months are the hottest for this crime (July and August) and February is the less. These crimes are done by young males under 25 years old looking for small expensive items that can be quickly turned into cash. The items of choice are: cash, jewerly, guns, watches, laptops, computer, vcr/dvd players. The thought behind this is that quick cash is needed for drugs.
