  1. No mention of a break and enter evidence. That leaves a family member, someone who has a key and knows she'd be out and for how long; and what tool to bring, or even herself.

  2. That was an inside job! The manager or a maintenance employee stole that poor woman's money! Hopefully she can raise the money she needs with her Go Fund Me account and move ASAP! 🙏🏿💔

  3. This is a senior citizen housing complex. Where are the security personnel? No one should be able to walk in the building unless they were buzzed in. No deadbolt lock on the front door or a key card to get in the door. This had to be someone familiar with the victim.

  4. I feel horrible for you, but I have to ask. What were you thinking of keeping that kind of money in your place the way the world is now somebody must’ve knew it was there.

  5. The apartment complex workers did it!
    And the manager is in on it.
    They prey on their tenants regardless of age.
    I put cameras in my apartment and I’m moving now but this time I’m hiding my cameras and suing the property owners.

  6. I wish someone will teach our seniors how to invest in a security camera. When I was in Atlanta, I invested in a Wyze camera, only $29.99 a year maintenance and camera about $49.00 or higher. On your phone, you can watch your place 24 hours a day. I lived in Atlanta on/off nearly 20 years, leaving in 2021, in Los Angeles now for 5 years. My same camera is with me. It operates over internet. She would have seen the person, recorded the person and saved to files even if they took or destroyed the camera. Because with instant alerts, you can record for 13 seconds or more pending Wyze camera models.

  7. Property managers or Maintenance staff. Unless she runs her mouth about her business or Entertain her neighbors! Sounds like an INSIDE job! WHO knew the Cameras weren't working! SENIORS are Vulnerable & are being taken advantage of! She needs to move soon!!! I've had a Property Mgr. Steal $200 cash from my Apts closet. Had 2 different owners rambling through my things leaving the smell of cheap perfume on my underwear drawer & the smell of Stank body odor in my apt. I have a foot locker with a heavy lock on it, leave NOTHING out. Lock up medications & Don't even post Dr apps or outings on refrigerator calendars or magnets, I feel like a Prisoner in my Subsidized unit. Can't have a Normal set up & the Violation of personal space & Privacy is Incomprehensible. THESE PEOPLE BE HAVING WHOLE HOMES & MORTGAGES AND WILL EVEN STEAL YOUR LAUNDRY QUARTER'S TOILET PAPER, SOAP AND PERFUMES, SCREW DRIVERS. HOUSING WAITLIST MAIL. CAUSING YOU TO MISS HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES, AND YOUR PEACE OF MIND AND COMFORT, INSTALL CAMERAS, EVERYDAY THAT I LEAVE OUT, LOCKING UP THINGS ARE A PART OF MY ROUTINE! ITS A DAMN SHAME!
