Southside Break-Ins

Thank you for you awareness-raising article in last Thursday's paper "Break Ins In Southside subdivision." I am one of those victims.
Summerfield is no different than the rest of Warsaw, and the recent break-ins should serve as a wake-up call for all of us. Warsaw is no longer innocent or exempted from criminal activity that we typically thought of only in larger metropolitan areas. Times are changing - and not for the better.
What I want people to be clear on is that we were all in our homes at the time we were violated. "Break-in" misleadingly gives the impression that these were vacant homes. We were sleeping with children and elderly parents.
To the people who committed the crimes, what you took from us was stuff. Listen to my iPod (I hope that you like chick music) - it was a Mother's Day present. Use my digital camera (it doesn't work in dimly lit rooms). Play with my children's Nintendo DS games (they bought them with their own earned money from walking dogs). Spend my cash (which was also earned).
Could you please send me my hard drive or a copy of my pictures on a disk? There is nothing on that Sony VAIO that means anything to anyone but me. Three years of photos of my children, my friends, my family, my friend that was killed this Christmas, my deceased pets, my grandfather that passed away, the video of my son and I at the mommy-son dance.
The battery wasn't even in it, so you need to buy a new one ($125), and a new hard drive ($200). For what you can sell it for, you may net $150. I am willing to trade you a new hard drive for the old one back. Please mail to P.O. Box 4275.
For my friends and neighbors in all of Warsaw - lock your doors (and back up your computer).
