FTA: Herscher Police Chief Rick Gilbert says a local woman and her children left for a brief weekend trip Saturday afternoon. Gilbert says that when they returned on Monday morning they found that someone had entered their house and decorated it for the holidays with a host of ornaments and Christmas lights.

My friends and I did this once -- some friends of ours were really broke and having a rough time, and as Christmas approached we decided we should do something nice for them. So we picked up an xmas tree and some ornaments and some little gifties (we were pretty broke too). We broke into their apartment while they were at church (really, make some kind of effort to secure your sliding glass door, people -- it's trivial to get one open), set everything up, and left.

They never did figure out who did it, but they thought it was pretty awesome. I still feel warm and fuzzy when I think about it.

I think this would mess with me more than if someone stole a bunch of my stuff

That's who I bet did it too. But don't think it's because he was a pissed-off baby daddy. Maybe he just wanted to do something cool for his kids...

Were bongs involved?

The baby daddy angle would make sense:

Dad: "See kids, Daddy does love you, regardless of what your evil whore mother says."

Mom: "You had no right to break into my house, regardless of your intentions"

Dad: "WHAT?! Your House? You Biatch!"

Dad grabs hammer, and the family has a wonderful time reliving last Christmas.

Quite possibly.

Or maybe, just maybe, something magical and wonderful happened...

Yes, I know, but I have an almost-six-year-old at home, and it's still magical and wonderful.

Not necessarily the baby-daddy. Could be the guy who's been stalking mom for a couple years and she just hasn't noticed it yet.

If you lend a key to the "handy man" don't be surprised that he made a few copies and has already tapped your phone lines and gone through your underwear drawer.

\based on a true story

This. The real crime here is that they decorated before Thanksgiving.

It should really be criminal to do so. It just encourages stores to put out Christmas stuff even earlier.

I can't believe my co-workers were able to get all the way to Illinois and back so fast.

Happened to me once, not long after I moved into a new place. I came back from a long weekend scuba diving to discover that someone had broken into the house. They'd brought in the mail, fed the cat, and even cleaned out the cat box.

I'm thinking "Man, we sure get a better class of burglars in this neighborhood."

Turned out to be the old guy across the street who'd always done it for the previous occupant, and just did it for me out of habit. I have some frikken awesome neighbors.

So, what we're dealing with here is a case of Breaking and Decorating.

The fiends!

Huh, at first I assumed that it was the same dumbass that left his wallet in my car seat when I caught him breaking into into entering it. (The locks were broken and it was a convertible, there was nothing to steal.)

I didn't even report it to the police, since I got $50 out of it. The wallet (with a credit card in it) was thrown on the sidewalk outside the car.
