RE: I caught a burgler!
The sad part of this story is that he's probably already out on the streets again looking for another score.
Get a Dog - the barking when a stranger comes round might scare these types off and all you have to do is feed and water the pooch and you'll get a new best friend who'll protect that Heli investment.

RE: I caught a burgler!
Not sure if this is a 3 strikes state, but i am sure the general principle is used here.
Even if gets away easy this time, next time will not be so easy. I grew up with a guy who did every day of 5 years for stealing an old tire from a junk yard. he got off easy once or twice, but after that was jail. He doesn't steal anymore. Another guy i know was a small time drug dealer, and now is a computer programmer and a decent guy. Raising a nice family... does what is right, just like the rest of us. Odds are it will be busness as ussual fo the burgler, but you never know. I remain hopefull.
Dogs are great, but it takes me a long time to get to sleep after they decide to bark at nothing. Security doors and windows are the thing for me.
