This reminds me of last year. Some crackhead was selling magazine subscriptions door to door and an old lady invited him in for something to drink. He robbed get, killed her with a fire poker, and left. He was caught pretty quickly.
This was like 3 streets down from me. I live in a very quiet, shore town. Shows ya that you can't hide at all. Violence strikes like lightning.
An aside: Because the dude was going door to door people started flipping out about us preaching. We weren't permitted to go out for almost two weeks. Now theres a "no knock" sticker avialable from the county. Some people think this applies to us, so we carry a little sized down document indicating that it doesn't.
oh wow! something like that happened down our street when i was around 6. some druggie was pretending he was there to work on the old ladies house...she couldn't remember if she called them etc. so she invited him in, he robbed, raped and killed her. it was SO horrible and our neighborhood was an middle-upper class neighborhood too.
yeah and not to mention that Brick, NJ is considered one of the safest towns to live in the entire US and this happened about what, 10 miles from Brick? heh
