INSIDE THE MIND OF A ROBBER
One in three house robbers have murdered and on average they commit 104 crimes before the law finally catches up with them. And with each crime perpetrated over an average period of seven-and-a-half years, they become more and more violent. ... This is the disturbing profile of a convicted house robber revealed in a study conducted by senior forensic investigation lecturer, Dr Rudolph Zinn, leaving the ex-police officer shocked at how willing this category of criminal was to resort to violence. ... Their modus operandi revolved around gathering intelligence about their intended victims. "They will keep the house under observation for a long time. Part of their reconnaissance also includes establishing which security firms operate in the area, how often they patrol and how long it takes for them to react to a call. ... The observation of their victims continue right up until they are ready to commit their crime, often they will hide in the garden watching the house. "They strike when their victims are still awake, at night or in the morning. They use the noise of TV sets, or cooking as cover. At this time they told me, most people haven't armed their alarms," Zinn explained.
