The Killer's Caught; the Burglars Aren't

The suspect is under arrest in the Cypress Street murder. Looks like a standard domestic dispute resulting in a decidedly non-standard double murder. As in, a jilted lover killed his girlfriend and the man she was with, who happened to live next door.

The suspect has already served time for homicide in the early eighties.

While it's a relief to know that 1. They caught the guy, and 2. it was a relational issue (meaning it doesn't affect others), there is another problem going on: a series of break-ins and robberies on my street, including my next-door neighbor and his neighbor.

We've lived on this street for three years, but last night we locked the windows for the first time in a long time.
