Lowest of the low entering someone’s home to rob them.
It’s a pity this poor woman didn’t have a gun. The fact is these scu m most probably knew she was alone.
Makes me sick to think these fellas go around thinking its ok to do this to another human being
The consequences of this can devastate a persons quality of life forever
I really hope they get caught
Hope they die before they get time to spend the proceeds
have your say
