So, I find myself, at times, wondering why we have an electoral college. I’m smart enough to make these choices for myself…but then I realize it’s not me I’m worried about. It’s people like this headline from the Houston Chronicle
KELSO, Wash. (AP) - The note inside the house made it clear to Cowlitz County sheriff’s deputies that they had the right place: “Do not open door & let anyone in! Stolen Stuff visable.”
Within a day, investigators confirmed that antiques, furniture, jewelry, credit cards and at least 19 guns found in the home of Gerald Levertt Mack had been stolen from at least 12 people, deputy Charles J. Rosenzweig said.
“Nothing like helping us figure out what’s going on,” Rosenzweig said.
Mack, 40, was arrested early Sunday after a standoff that began the previous evening, when a witness said Mack had entered his home. Deputies returned later Sunday with a search warrant.
Mack was jailed for investigation of first-degree burglary and residential burglary. Bail was set at $30,000.
