Then they made a mistake of trying it again a few days later. We suspected it there was a chance we would be hit again as they left behind several valuables after the first break in. We were waiting and they paid the ultimate price for it, and best of all, our actions was all legal in canadian law as I was living in Canada at the time. Despite the girl's and guy's family pressuring the DA to file charges on grounds that it was premeditated on our end. However, the law was written that anyone breaking into someone's home/property, the owner has the legal right to protect himself and his family by any and all means necessary. Not to mention it was hard for the "criminal's" families to get any sympathy from the public as the girl and guy who did the break ins were well known to the police as they did do several break ins before, and had several drug and violent related offenses against them so they were no saints.

So getting back to this story, I am on the side of the homeowner and applaude him for killing the burglars. I hope they suffered a painful slow deaths like the one we enjoyed seeing with our burglars It's true when they say money don't always buy happiness. For us, this event was especially true.
