So I now have updated information on the burglary of my home. They actually found the kid who did it, and I have recovered my laptop. Which I am really quite amazed on the turn around. I never assumed I would ever see the laptop again. Thats why I had purchased another one.

So the kid was arrested on another charge and they found pawn records, one of which was a laptop.On a hunch the detective decided to go see if I was lucky and it was my laptop, it was pawned the same day my house was broken into. It turned out to be mine indeed, The crazy thing I was never aware of was that if I wanted my laptop back before all the court proceedings were done I would need to purchase my laptop back from the pawn shop, Its kind of weird buying your own possessions back. The shocking thing was he had pawned a brand new Sony Vaio laptop for $120, I mean the jail time you risk and all you get is $120. You could have sold it on the street for much more, and not had to show a pictured ID. Is it really worth the jail time to make $120. Is anyone really that desperate for money? Anyway I’m just extremely glad to have the laptop back in my possession, now I can recover our pictures. I have included a picture of the “winner” at the bottom of this post.
