My place has been "violated"  4 times in 24 years. Short of deploying deadly traps for burglars ( for which YOU will go to jail not the bad guy) good luck preventing this problem. Other than a Mercruiser Outdrive stolen from my old boat inside my boathouse, tracked and sold as a repair job in Destin ($4000) about 15years ago,,, the other breakins have been mostly a nusiance.

They steal stuff they can pawn/sell quickly. Flat screen TV, electronics, GUNS are always good. And the damage they create breaking in is always more than the value of what they steal!!

Had Long talks with Coosa Cty Deputies over time on this,, they don't have a chance to prevent it. Coosa is the number 2 poorest county in Alabama(Dallas #1). Sheriff has 4 cars total. To cover a huge area. 2 on,,, 2 off??? Impossible.

So, deploy alarms and especially Cameras to capture and PUBLISH pix of these jerks. Cover your own property as best you can, because your law enforcement folks just cannot..
