My wife's credit card was stolen but i didn't bother to get it back cause the thief was spending less than my wife
Very underrated comment lol
😭😭🤣
I chuckled.
Thats sad bcz that money is not coming any yse to u
It's funny because I can relate hahahahh
this is the longest wireless alarm ad
Switched it off @ 2:40. I can already tell it’s gonna be boring as shit.
This "alarm commercial" was brought to you by the American Wireless Alarm Systems Alliance (AWASA) ba-ha-ha
But maybe Mr. Durden didn't know, that you can get cellular/WiFi scramblers on the dark web or China, which could disable 90% of home security systems since less and less homes use landlines anymore... but it doesn't matter now, he's f*cked! xD
Having an unkempt yard is cheaper.
@@BillAnt lmfao you can get anything on the dark web. Order some shit and tell me how it goes chief
dim somto oof
One thing I learned living in Brazil is: always make eye contact with who you think is gonna rob you. Stealth and surprise are key elements for a thief/robber/burglar to act and succeed. It happened with me more than once, I was surely gonna be robbed, then I looked at them and walked towards them and they just went away. In one of these situations they actually robbed the person right in front of me. Always make sure the robber knows you are aware of them. A thief is essentially a coward.
Some thieves don't want to hurt people so they move on to an easier target. It's the ones that use violence that are dangerous
When a thief says the best deterrent is to be neighborly it shows how reluctant we are to talk to each other and its sad.
dude witrh my neighboors i rather have you break in once in a while then i have to talk to them
One of my neighbors is a low IQ, drunk, pill head that tried to extort money from me. Another one that just moved in has his nose all over my front yard, and had declared the quiet neighbors down the street to be the "known meth house," so I guess that makes him a slanderer. The others come/go from their house 15 times a day. I don't know what they are up to. I avoid all of them.
@@woswasdenni1914 😂😂😂 that's rough
@@pmarie-se3tz I don't blame you, however you did practically prove my point about reluctance. Every neighborhood has the unfriendly people, some have drug addicts others don't, but what I can guarantee is you do have genuinely neighborly people. The reluctance based on the few trouble makers makes you not meet the nice neighbors. Outnumber the hooligans and make a difference.
Fake cameras with a blinking red LED light is a great deterant. Tweakers really think the cameras are real. That and wireless alarm system. Simply safe is awesome
If a robber broke into my house looking for money
*I would look with them*
Sharky 😂
Haha
Do you have any house? Lol 😂

@@sii9423 damnnnn i was going to steal your comment....
@@judith346 yes my exact thoughts- what kind of BS comment is that! he is probably getting some kind of deal for doing this interview. Also, some of his recommendations like putting your jewelry inside the toolbox in the garage are garbage advice. Toolboxes get stolen too, often.
@@yesmaam4258 Toolboxes get stolen by methheads who have no mind for actual B&E's
At first I was wondering "Why is he so careful to make sure no one is home?"
Then I remembered he was in Texas.
Not wanting to get shot can be a great motivator.
@James D I don't think you know how common it is for burglars to get shot at by homeowners while licking a house.
James D in other states you have a duty to retreat-Texas has castle law.
@James D You can literally shoot a kid on your front lawn on Halloween if they come up and you have a no trespassing sign. It happened and the dude got away scot free. If you have that sign clearly visible and someone is on your property, weapons free.
Same reason there's hardly any crime in the country. Everyone is armed, and everything is unpredictable.
@@genli5603 You are wrong. You have no duty to retreat in Tennessee. Also to quote a line from the movie Shooter: "Tennessee, patron state of shootin' stuff."
Someone broke into my house, I woke up while he was searching for money, so I helped him search because if there's money in the house, I'd be shocked.
I'd just tell him, I don't have any right now, but if he has 2 hours or so, I'll simply print some for him. Just need to get the press going xD
😂 but what attracted him to your home?
Haha best comment I've seen going through these, relateable!
hahahaha
Take a picture of 100 dollar bills, print them out and say it´s real money
this guy's knowledge and understanding about his "target customers" is way beyond most sales people in any businesses
Our home was robbed on a bad weather day (heavy rain). The cops told us they felt safer breaking-in while the rain noise helped them from being easily heard or from neighbors hearing. They'd cased our place & waited for bad weather & us being gone to work.
1.5K burglars are upset with this dude revealing some of their tricks.

And that is exactly why my house looks like shit on the outside.
i have to much self respect to leave my house dirty jus buy a good security system and a shotgun
@Foodie Eats same
I literally have rotting food on my front porch right by the door. I'm not proud of it but I also don't worry about locking my door. 5 years in the worst neighborhood in my city and no problems. In fact, some guy on hallucinogenics came in to tell me my door had blown wide open in the wind once, closed it, then left
Buzzkill 808 Raven Yea I would probably lock my doors man.
The recommendation of saying just a minute I’m on the phone is great, thank you
No one answers the door anymore even when they are home

Plot twist: the police officer wants to start robbing houses and wants advice
Shhhhhhh, don't blow his cover!!!
Lol
Lol
🤣🤣🤣 true, he is very keen.
What if all police started that

This police officer is better interviewer than 99% of "journalists" today.

To is an outward sign of repentance though I would not be surprised if it was part of a plea deal.
He's only doing what You believe is right because he's been caught. He's a POS and if he was still on the street, He'd break into your home tonight!
@@thomaskane5452 Did you even watch the video you fucking retard?
Let's hope that he truly is repentant and changes his ways. My wife's son was always a model citizen while in jail or prison. He always reverted to his evil ways once he was out. I'm sure his talk has something to do with reducing his sentence.
Nah he just wants you to use a cellular alarm system because you can very easily block them with a $600 cell phone jammer 🤣
I truly hope Shane has been honest and truthful and actually suffers remorse and stays clean of drugs. When he gets out please continue with these public service messages and visit with local PD and community groups with this sort of message. It will help a lot of people

Thanks to everyone who participated in creating this presentation. Excellent information!
Sounds like a job interview.This fella could've been a success in anything legal with his planning & executing a task to the best chance of succeeding.
I noticed the same thing. Drugs destroy a lot of lives.
He could have channeled his intelligence into something that's good for society but he chose to do something else instead
He very likely has some sort of pathology, which is what i think lead's people to engage in criminal activity,even though they might have the intellectual capacity to engage in legal occupations. I think the justice system essentially contend's with such persons in the manner it does because pathologies aren't the same as intellectual disabilities.

Lol I know what you mean
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's cool how a cop is doing the interview with a honest thief. Good info.
The respect between two different men. Good video.
This inmate was so informative that he helped me be aware of certain surroundings that I didn't even considered or even thought of about my home. This same informative information & awareness can also help with protecting your car.
"I jog a lot. I would wear long sleeve shirts that covered my tattoos, and my venacular was not that of a common criminal. I would case neighborhoods on foot."
Thief level 100
*Intensely writes down on paper!*
Uh then he said he was weary of certain situations....and the repeated it....I believe he meant leary.
Yes I thought perhaps he was attempting to say wary
poisenbery kkkmkmk
I think it's just his pronunciation of wary. I've done it before. Just a bit of the accent he has.
Those 2k dislikes came from the thieves guild.

steal

Cop: we can take 10 years off your sentence

You can always use the "Not interested" function. I always do that to block the random "1 dollar pen vs 10.000 dollar pen" videos that pop up everywhere.
Same. I figured it must be good if it's STILL on the recommended. It was interesting.
Hahahah same. I decided to give it a listen and I’m glad because now I know more
I hate recommended videos this also came up in mine
Hahaha same here!
Every homeowner needs to hear this information. Thank you for posting it.
Objectively speaking, this collabortive interview was highly informative & helpful. Thank you to both the interviewer & interviewee for educating us.
I'll buy a sign that says I've got a wireless alarm and stick it in my yard since I'm too broke to afford it. Discount deterrent.
Did you see the bit where he'd go for houses that look rich??
sweet peach discounted detergent at dollar store
Thieves today have technology like everyone else. They can Google real and fake companies. They'd be eyeballing your house if you stick a fake sign.
He actually goes into a section where he actually checks the registration for security services just to catch people who only keep up the sticker.
@@KingHenryIX it doesn't need to be a fake sign, security companies don't care if you put one of their signs in your yard and don't get their service, it's free advertising for them. Normal legit people see the sign and brand awareness happens.
This guy takes ten minutes to plan how he is going to eat a cookie.
Chris well if what you are doing can land you thirty years in jails then you should be taking all the time you need
to the oceans 11 sound track
Chris lmao
"Cellular cookie jar, I'ma just keep jogging."
First he cases the plate of cookies, he’s looking for a particular cookie, if it doesn’t have chocolate chips, he’s not going to waste his time, but if it does have chocolate chips but only contains 4 or less chips, he won’t risk it, what he’s looking for is the perfect sized cookie, too small and it’ll be crunchy, too big and it’ll be gooey, sometimes he doesn’t find the right cookie, so he has to make a completely new batch
I am a Security Consultant with 50-years experience in private security service and electronic surveillance and detection equipment. The information testified to in this video is very good information, but a little outdated on alarm systems. Few people have home phones anymore, so nearly all alarm systems communicate by cellphone or Internet. Internet is very, very fast and often alerts the user at the same time as the monitoring station.
If the alerted CCW home owner responds faster than the police the burglar is in serious danger. Properly installed alarm systems are not as easy to defeat as in the past. Internet security cameras alert the user and sometimes the alarm monitoring company with live video who can give descriptions of the burglars and vehicles used and can verify the alarm to expedite police response. Responding police, having more information from eye witnesses viewing live remote video surveillance will respond in force looking for more than just an open door.
That young man speaks so well and voiced important safety information. Thank you !
Pretty informative. But why I am watching this at 2AM, after I started looking for Skyrim Modding Tutorials three hours ago is the real question.
I see I am not the only one.
was watching some maplestory m guide and now im here as well, it's 3:45am xD
I went from Obi wan Kenobi "hello there" meme complations to the orgeon trail to WW2 to this.
Well put.
You're watching skyrim mod tutorials on 2018? You should know that shit step by step by now
Was this how to protect your house from a burglar or how to become a burglar because now I feel like I can do both
I was thinking the same thing at first... then I remembered something really important... this guy got caught.
@@TheRoloSound that is true
if you can think like a criminal then you already a step ahead.
yes but he was able to do it for a while before getting caught
he broke into HUNDREDS of homes
Thank you to all the officers who care every day for our welfare. Believe me there are a lot of us who care about you too.
This man is articulate,intelligent,and is telling people what they can do to protect your home.Some comments here,are ridiculous and absurd.He's in custody.Certainly speaking of home safety,let's hope he has changed his profession.
His inteligence was wrongly used... What a shame...
His drug addiction turned him into a theif i believe he started with good intent
Unfortunately the very intelligent are more driven to drugs than those with avg or above avg.... Drugs are the purview of those on the fringes of intelligence spectrum. Very low and Very high, it's the middle ground that tend to work bit harder in school and try bit harder in life and don't think too much about it... Life, just DO it! Lol

My dog woke me up at 4 am, which is unusual. He didn’t bark while inside but wanted out. I opened the door and he took one leap from my front porch all the way to the gate where some guy was standing just staring at my house. It will never leave my mind. He knew that person was there somehow. He’s a German Shepherd and the most loving dog I’ve ever known, except for with that guy.
Wow sounds like a horror movie
I had a tiny doxie like that.
My parrot had climbed down her cage and was climbing up the coffee table leg to get to me on the couch. Never did that before. Didn't make a sound. I was watching tv and her cage was right next to it. Didn't notice a damned thing.
Anyway I open the gate to the kitchen then let out my crated doxie. She shot past me so fast, it made me look. She didn't make a sound. Usually, asked whine and stand on her legs to get the birds.
Had my parrot in her mouth. I screamed, grabbed them both and was spinning around. Don't know how I got her to drop the bird; because we've chased that dog and had to pry her jaws open to release a dead bird and to release my pug's face 😳
She killed a baby mole that suddenly ran out from under the drain pipe while we were walking up the stairs. She didn't even hesitate, just snapped it and killed it.
Walking her at midnight, she heard? Smelled? A large dog 2 blocks away and took off like a bullet to kick it's azz😳
Fearless... Gentle with people and children... Ready to kill everything else - all 11lbs of her. Had the deep bark of a large dog. Not yappy at all.
Damn! I miss that dog!
Total bad azz!😂
The bird lived and wasn't shaken at all😅
Dogs can smell intruders a mile away, they can smell 100,000 better than humans.
That happened to me and my dog got skunked🤦🏻♀️🐶
@hoihoi9866 it's a love story.
Great interview. At first, i thought it was an advertisement for a security system, but the dude seemed sincere.
It's been 6yrs since the interview and I don't know what has happened,but I wish Michael the best of luck in your life, hope you are totally off the drugs you were in and you do your best with your life in the future.
hey,i lokked the link in the description up.
it says :
Projected Release Date: 2023-05-14
so he will be out next year if he doesnt do something i think. i wish him the best and a good use of his big brain for a good cause
He's in prison. Being a prisoner.
@@dogmosatchmo Where he belongs.
However...It has been said that stealing becomes an addiction after they start getting away it. Addictive-compulsive behavior, just like any other addiction. If it becomes pleasurable and they can even profit from it, all the more the addiction is intensified.
Yes indeed I hope the best for the thief, but if and when he is out on his good behavior and his
help, sure hope he can stay clean.

@@phlodel so you don't believe that some criminals can do their time and come out and live life like most normal people?
Being a burglar seems to be so much more work that actually getting a job.
Absolutely. After 20 years as a career criminal, married to another career criminal, I finally realized that and gave it up. Working was way easier.
DrDonley lot more risky for sure.lol
Oceanic Dangernoodle I don't think this was sympathizing with thieve's actions, just saying they could've worked honestly with less effort
@Oceanic Dangernoodle Hmm, well the words made sense, but your sarcastic tone didn't. Does it not sound like difficult work?
Guy was a personal trainer, seems like he liked it for the thrill.
Thief: *information*
Cop: mhm
Mhm mhm mhm lol
The officer is practising his human knowledge. He does not judge, and he only sends out conformation. His goal is to get information and let him do the talking. You can try this yourself, and be amazed that most ppl are more than willing to keep and keep talking if you let them this frequently know you are listening.
Ik when I noticed it that’s all I could focus on. Kinda pissed me off.
Lmao
Thanks for the lyrics
What a great interview. Thank you to Mr. Durden.

According to the Texas DOJ he was eligible for parole in 2017 so he's probably breathing free air right now.
20-30 aka serve 7. Relax and learn about the system
He broke into rich people's homes. That's a big no no.
I got my front door kicked in by burglars in the middle of the day once, because I didn't answer their knocking on my door. They made the excuse that they had the wrong house, when face to face with speechless me. Also had potential burglar trying to climb in my bedroom window in same flat at night, until they spotted me in bed. Ground floor flats are a big no to me now.
Inflation hits people a lot harder than a crashing stock or housing market as it directly affects people's cost of living that people immediately feel the impact of. It's not surprising negative market sentiment is so high now. We really need help to survive in this Economy. The fin-Market;s have underperformed the U.S. economy as fear of inflation hammers the prices of stock;s and bonds. My portfoliio of $250k is down to $192k any recommendation;s to scale up my return;s during this crash will be highly appreciated.
I agree, my proffit have been quite consistent, regardless of market situation, I got in early 2019 and the constant downtrends and losses discouraged me so I sold off, got back in Dec 2020 this time with guidance from a portfolio-adviser. I found her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her afterwards. long story short, its been two years now and I’ve gained over $85ok following guidance from my inveestment adviser.

Well Putin, what if they’re there to steal guns. 🎰!!!!
@ŇøHă Ģ. Especially if your'e one of those guys who buys a $500 safe and put $30,000 worth of guns in it.
Loved watching this a pray God blesses him and changes his heart so he never steals another thing his whole life!!! Thank you mr
I admire his honesty.
Jeez, southern criminals are so polite, every other sentence, "Yes, sir..."
I mean, he is very intelligent, so he knows it's in his best interest.
A lot of southerners are that way, criminal or not ☺️
Bare in mind that he's doing this to try to get a reduced sentence.
Most northern people kinda hide their mentality like that this guy could be insane (hes probably not im not saying he is) and he could be hiding it perfectly....
Yeah he’s on his best behaviour probably with an incentive for an appeal.
I love how in Texas the burglar is so polite with the cop. And the cop treats the burglar with respect. They're so matter-of-fact.
I think it might be the fact that he's not trying to sell his innocence still (wich according to my father, who works corrections, NO criminal is guilty according to them).. so when you meet the ONE convict who owns up to his shit, you really do respect them for their honesty and you can finally see them as a real person again. Imagine it as: your ex cheats on you, you have video proof he did it, and he STILL says he was the most faithful man you could have ever been with. Can you make that relationship work? No. But maybe, just maybe, the one who is remorseful and begs for counseling and a second chance, you might be able to give it a shot.
I agree. I also appreciate Santa leaving me presents when I was a child.
I have a feeling most of the United States doesn't treat criminals as human beings, and most of the criminals would refuse to cooperate, but in countries that treat criminals humanely, that's normal.
Respect should interpersonal, not socio-economic, or associative. I applaud these two individuals for conversing respectfully as peers within humanity.
The Cop is Mining this Guy for info....it's an Old Interrogation Technics....It's Chit Chat...beter than sitting in their Cell
I was a thief at one time of my life out of sheer desperation due to a horrible drug addiction to heroin. I find it hard to understand someone who would do it just for money, no starvation or drug addiction or other situations that can lead to a feeling of absolute desperation, the mind of someone who would do it repeatedly for profit must really have little in the way of a conscious. This is a person to steer clear of , no matter what they project. A lot of fake people in this world who project to others very differently to who ( or what ) they really are.
I dunno, wether deal with this guy than a drug addict, at least this guy appears to have a code. Drug addicted, starving, desperate person scares me far more than this guy.
It's because all sins are addictive.
Gambling
Prostitution
Lying
Stealing
Drugs
Alcohol
Gluttony (binge eating)
Idolatry (idolizing sports players, celebrities, pagan idols, etc)
Homosexuality
Pornography
Adultery
@@finalfantasy3808amen. empty souls are gravitated towards addictions.
@christopherhorn1161 this guy repeatedly said he was a thief because he was a drug addiction. Locked up in TX, I suspect he can't get the drugs now.
You are judging someone as less than you because you both stole but u did it high on dope supposed to make you better than him. Doesn't really carry much weight
It’s sad because this thief is well-spoken and smart. If only he could’ve channeled those smarts into doing something positive with his life.
This guy got me paranoid now looking out my windows at joggers.
I just snatched up a jogger and interrogated him, but he said he wouldn't waste his time. I have a $80 fence, and a dog that bit us both on accident during the failed interrogation. Now, I jog too.
Like you should
PCgohard You’re ego is like 500 times bigger than your brain
issa joke hombre.
@@PCgohard one shot and your done gtfo
After only 9 minutes of listening to this guy...he is a criminal mastermind. He needs to run for congress
Very underrated comment
Not really. I used to steal, these things just come to you, it’s common sense.
🌷YOR THE BEST I HAVENT LAUGHED THIS HARD IN A LONG TIME...THANK YOU!
I figured out that he's a socialist.
Best comment
This is such valuable information! Thank you!!
Thank you for your beautiful honesty
Tbh I can respect this guy for taking his past and using it to help people
Helping thieves lmao
Dank Memer tbh I can respect this guy for taking his past and using it to help people.....steal
Dank Memer ya if he stopped even so how much damage he caused to innocent ppl
he was probs offered time off his sentence or some other perk for revealing
Well he was also bribed with a sentence reduction.
But Mr Durden! The first rule of thief club is: you do not talk about thief club!

TY for sharing this video with us, I do hope you continue to be drug free and safe. It's terrible that people have bad thing's happen to them with the horrible drug's out there. I'll keep you in my prayers and hope that you continue doing this and telling people how to detire robber's and keep them out. I also hope that one day you continue to work with the authorities and help get special jewelry back to the owner's. This is the first time I have seen a criminal do what you did with the sheriff and I thank him for setting this up so we can learn how to handle our homes to not be burglurized and what to do and not to do. I hope you continue to get help, speak Out, and get better and stay safe and maybe one day that you will be able to get in a place to continue helping the public and the help you need. God Bless You and the Sheriff and the people that was involved. I know now days I have had to pay more attention than year's before but I grew up watching my surroundings and watching people closely. Now I'm always alert and always watching My surroundings and even driving My vehicle I do this More. Always knowing an escape route. TY.
As an ADT sales rep, this has been very helpful
The real question is, how did this guy get caught?
probably on drug charges or selling stolen goods

Thank you for sharing how to protect our homes.
I feel like I’ve just been solicited for wireless home security
Its funny how this guy looks like a cop
What's up
LIFE ISNT EASY .... I don't want to force anything on yall but man I've had so many problems and the only true way to come out of them victorious is thru the Lord God Almighty... I know society makes everyone think being religious is for deluded people but please open your eyes it's not.. I plead to yall just say a prayer to God commit all your worries fears, regrets and deepest problems into his hands.. read the bible and keep praying to him in Jesus Name .. I promise you your life will change for the better I promise you
I was pondering on suicide, I wanted to run away from home but I prayed to the Lord God and all of a sudden ..things started moving forward in my life.. I've done so many evil things in my past.. things that i think any other person would kill me for if they were God but God kept me alive and well
I dont want to be seen as the deluded guy in the comment section but I'm literally pouring my heart out
I thought my sins were too bad and that I will never succeed in my dreams.. but I forgot that in John 3:16 it says "For God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life"
Believe that Jesus died on the cross for all of our sins to be forgiven and to give us eternal life in heaven
You may think I'm crazy but I'm begging just try this read the bible pray and watch yourself rise to heights you never expected
Dont fall into the tricks of the world I'm begging
I apologise for this being too long
Imma try and send this out to loads of comments sections.. I hope this touched your soul.. if it did please like the message and comment let's make it together
Amen
I read this like it was that scene from the fast and the furious where Brian was accused of being a cop 😂😂
@@briannk3720 amen brother, you definitely just helped me. Ive been struggling and battling with myself so hard latley. The pressure and stress is getting to the point where im almost broken again, while satan is standing there smiling. I did something I havent done in a long time a couple days ago. I closed my eyes, with such pain in my heart, tears running down my face, quite literally losing my will to live , and prayed to God whole heartedly to guide me again. To please help me have strength when satan is close and I am weak and vulnerable. That I am so sorry for knowing whats right and just, and still choosing to do wrong and evil. Then moment after I said I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ, I was overcome with conviction and the holy spirit, literally felt chills throughout my body. So Istarted to pray and repent. The next day came and when I woke up I felt great! I hopped out of bed thanking God and started making a to do list for the day. Then moments later, I completely fell face first back into the same stuff that had me searching so desperately for the lord and nearly a shell of a man, and immediately felt hopeless. That was yesterday. Since then ive still felt like dirt, untill I came accross ur comment. 2 major but subtle things stood out to me the most among you're amazing story. READ YOUR BIBLE, and PRAY TO THE LORD. Huge brother!! So huge!!! Yesterday when I woke up I did neither. After writing this comment, and tomorrow and so on, I will make a consious and willing effort to tead my bible and pray every day. Thank you so much man, youre story is very inspiring and has definitely shed light in a dark place. Thank you, and God bless 😁
Lol I was thinking the exact same thing
Commercial for wireless alarm systems
ArmchairWarrior He's not just talking about wireless alarms for the first couple minutes, he goes on about them in between the whole video, and he raves about their effectiveness for a couple minutes around 25 minutes in.
Get back to sorting out your privacy policy
not once did he mention a name of a wireless security system company
Mark Z U C C this video was sponsored by Wireless Alarm System.
He even stated that just having a sign for wireless security, even if you don’t have it, was a huge deterrent. What security company would promote that? None.
I've been searching for a good broker to trade with!!!
Please 🙏 sir how can i find one??
Real brokers are hard to find but you have to settle down and select one for yourself
Yes you're right!! Real brokers are hard to find but i have one which I've been trading with Mrs Bell Elizabeth. Is her name familiar with anyone here?
@@allengalvin2838 Wow 😲 I'm surprised you called that name here.
Yes I've been working with her and she's super fabulous
Ohh i remembered a friend of mine calling that name but i didn't pay attention then...
But i will like to make some good investment with her.
You guys know Mrs Bell Elizabeth too...
I have been trading her, i invested $7k last two weeks and i received $21,560k and i placed another trade immediately.
Put valuables in a safe deposit box in a bank.
Glad we don't have any valuables. Nearly all our stuff is from the thrift store.
No joke my dad has slept through someone taking off our front door and stealing stuff because his fan was on.
Sa Ch 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🚫🚫🚫🚫
Scary stuff =D
Charlieboy Saldivar yup
Did they at least leave the front door?
Hell one of my roommates i used to have I'm pretty sure he could sleep through a gun fight. I had to wake him up a few times and i had to literally lift the bed and drop it to wake him up. He's also a truck driver and he was asleep in his truck and people where blowing air horns, banging on his truck over and over, they called his company to call him over and over. A police officer broke into his truck and he jumped up and was like can i help you? There was 2 ambulances and multiple cop cars. They thought he was dead LMFAO
20-30 years for burglary, in his case a non violent criminal.... I’ve seen rapists and murderers get less. Wtf
He gets out in 2023, less than 3 years from now lol.

"Projected release date: 2023-5-14"
offender.tdcj.texas.gov/OffenderSearch/offenderDetail.action?sid=04156120
@@mookymoos3130 Thats from the Texas Tribune an online newspaper lol, which are only going off his original date, which is only the raw sentence handed out by the judge that doesn't factor in things like prison programs that reduce time, time already spent in jail for the crime before sentencing, good behavior and other variables that dictate actual release date. The actual TDoJ has his official records which are updated by the courts and what the prison system is going off of. Trust me on this one my man.
@@junkiexl86 ^ This. Sadly having been through the system myself, this is 100% correct. This messed with my family as well as they saw only the sentence the judge gave me and not what my actual release date was (which is updated each month, often lowering the first few months as things like Shawn said, get factored in). But yea, A newspapers information is by no means superior to the information of the actual prison system itself. They don't have up to the minute communications with the courts as the prison system (Texas Department of Justice) has to have.
The man is getting out in 2023, so long as he keeps his nose clean inside and doesn't do anything to add more time to his sentence or lose any 'good time'. Also pretty much in every state offenders do not do the full sentence. Its usually 51% for non-violent crimes and 85% for violent crimes.
really appreciate both sides for sitting down & providing this useful information. great video idea full of useful info! i actually watched a video of a navy SEAL telling you how to be prepared for a home invasion right b4 this video hints why it recommended the video and he specifically mentioned the nails used by builders to put on all the hardware on your front door is short and easy to break into and to replace them with 3in carpenter nails or some kind of nail that was 3in so i found it crazy David specifically mentioned that! BTW IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE "THE WATCH" YOUR MISSING OUT!!
Damn why's he seem like a chill ass dude
Ok, I've learnt to appreciate my nosey neighbour now
Facts
Mine is completely useless because she is only nosey with your personal life and not things that actually count.
My neighbor is a mechanic that works from home.. always in the garage with garage door open working on cars . Free security lol
Right ! I wish I was your nosey neighbor lol because giiiirl you are sight to see 😍😍😍😍 #beautiful

if u kill an unarmed burglar in your own home and the cops show up, you will literally face criminal charges and jail time. unless you're from one of 3 states
Should be able to kill any intruder in your house honestly, at least shoot at without any repercussions.
And a partridge in a pear tree
So, just make sure you kill them quietly ;)
Truly the art of listening just so no one gets left behind.
watching this had added "deterrent" to my vocabulary
This could also be called "How to be a burglar".
What burglar actually researches how to burglarize lol? Who are you kidding.
Rant Therapist I DO
Burglars know how to be burglars. Most homeowners, however, are completely clueless.
opmike343 No they dont know, they learn not all criminals are stupid he shows that

Did you not catch his clueless PC name? Lol, and you have a Pepe profile, m8.

Suya you're really funny. 🤣
Thieves are charismatic speakers.
My uncles been in and out of prison his whole life and hes 56. He always seems to find God everytime he goes to prison. Helps him get out quicker
X- burglar here, he's absolutely right. I suggest Wyze wireless home security if your on a budget. $57/year! $150-$250 for equipment depending on what you get. Big, "scary" dogs, motion lights. All that helps.
Now I have an excuse for my wife to leave the outside of my house looking like crap...it's to deter a burglar
LOL!
