this is what the Officer said:

When we went to Public Safety, the nice young man reported that the ring ahd been found in a box/bin full of stuff that was obviously not the property of the homeowner. I didn't get the part about why the detectives were searching this person's home, but there was a bin full of cameras and camcorders, jewelry, a sack full of collectible coins from other nations, as well as miscellaneous items the homeowner could not explain. Sort of like that line in the Oh Brother movie, where the paper money is blowing out the window.....

And that smart young officer also said that the alleged individual had reportedly ratted out the alleged owner, who had given the detectives the names of several pawn shops that might have property that had been taken as a result of other doors being kicked in. And the detectives would be checking the pawn shops for items that could be readily identified, like those commerative watches that can not be replaced. Maybe, possibly, perhaps: some of the other things that were burgled away from us will come back home....which will cause him to repay the funds (competely inadequate for replacment) that he received from the insurance claim on the homeowners policy.

Once again: my story/warning is to let everyone who will listen/read know that: deadbolts do not insure safety. The deadbolt will/might hold, but the door frame will most definitely Not. Maybe if you had half-a-dozen dead bolts spaced along the length of the door from top to bottom, like you see in the movies when people are living in tiny one room apartments in The City with multiple locks/defenses. But otherwise: I'm encouraging some type 'plan B' to insure safety.

With us: crazily we have a reinforced metal door, and a  reinforced door frame. But a window adjacent to the door - which sort of makes all that effort and expense moot. Plus the other two doors that a person would use to gain entry into our house: glass in both!  I geuss you could say: asking for trouble? Except that now that we do not have anything of value, we have a most excellent security/alarm system - and it's not four-legged.
