    While I live rural, it is on a road where numerous houses are situated close to each other, so we all watch each other's houses. Plus, because of our screwy work hours, I always have someone at the house 24/7, so that probably discourages thieves.

    I lived "out in the country" on the outskirts of Louisville a few years ago and was robbed too. It's a humbling experience to say the least. You just feel violated and there is a 99.9% the criminals will never get caught.

    As for your identity, I have been happy with identityguard.com.

    As far as your insurance claim, the more pictures, receipts, etc you have for your stolen items, the better likelihood you will get a good return on your claim. I had a slew of power tools stolen but I had all the owner's manuals with the model numbers. I probably got full, if not more, value in return from the insurance company.

    This is something quick you can do. Just go to one of the credit agencies' web sites (Experian, Transunion or Equifax) and put your file on alert. It's free.
    Or call them. If you call one, they will alert the other two.
    This way taking out a new credit line requires more verification. The fraud alert is good for 90 days after which you probably have to renew it if you think you're still vulnerable.

    I had to do this a few weeks ago as someone tried (unsuccessfully) to enter one of my bank accounts online.

    Good news! They caught the clown. He has yet to be formally charged with the break in of my home, but it is coming.

    Great news LoganBuck. Hopefully this will lead to you getting some of the sentimental items back.

    Re: So my house got robbed today.

    I got robbed once. I've never been so furious in my entire life. Once the gravity of the situation set in I blacked out. When I came to, I was in front of two police officers with both of my hands covered in blood. I was terrified at the possibilities as to what I had done since I didn't remember anything once I "lost it". Turns out in my rage I went all Joe Frazier on a brick wall while screaming threats into the night in the hopes that the scumbag would hear me, I guess. Even to this day, (and this was 12 years ago) I wish I had come home while he (they) were in the act. I've never felt so violated in my life.

    Glad they caught the little punk, Logan.

    Logan, as bad as this all sucks for you--it could have been worse. If this cat was crazy enough to begin robbing banks, it is probably better that you and your family were not home when he hit your place.

    True.

    The fact that his kid goes to school with my kids makes me feel even better. I had tried to keep that fact hidden from my kids. I don't need them trying to get even.
