Summary: "Over 18 000 house robberies are committed in South Africa every year and police attempts to stop it have had little effect. In 2006/7 Rudolph Zinn interviewed a group of convicted house robbers in jail. He found that the average house robber is in his 20s, a young man who is nevertheless a very experienced criminal who has committed over 100 crimes by the time he is arrested. He plans his robbery in advance, after first obtaining inside information about the house and its residents. He often uses extreme violence, and will harm his victims if they put the robbery at risk. Home Invasion discloses in shocking detail the modus operandi and motivation of house robbers. Crucial information is brought to light that will empower anyone who reads the book. It offers important advice - based on the house robbers' information and the author's analyses - on how to safeguard your home and minimise danger if attacked. The information in this book was validated by the findings from a recent case docket analysis done by the police of a 1000 house robbery cases reported to them"--Bookseller's website.<br/><br/> |
