MURFREESBORO, TN (WSMV) - More than $20,000 worth of guns, gold and cash has been stolen from the home of a local attorney and former school board member in the Blackman community.

The burglars tip-toed their way through the house, according to police, picking and choosing which guns to take and not to take.

This is what happens when you don't take steps to protect you assets.

The victim noticed the gun were missing Thursday [Jan 16] but believes they were stolen sometime from mid-December to mid-January. No evidence of break in sounds strange; someone must have had knowledge of lack of any home security.

Should have taken some of that money and invested in a decent safe at the least.

Stupid is as stupid does

Where was he for a whole month? I smell a rat or maybe his wife is pissed at him and getting ready for divorce.

Agreed. Sounds like an inside job. Wife, relative, "friend", etc.

Wow!! Aren't unfortunate boating accidents easier stories to stick to?



I agree both stories sound like inside jobs. I think there may be reasons why the "victim" doesn't want someone (i.e. wife in divorce) to get their hands on valuables.

I would know if anything was tampered with within the day.

Sounds very odd...

Insurance fraud?

Give a "friend" some guns, jewelry, etc to sell for you and he takes a cut. Then claim the loss against your insurance.

^^^Just an FYI for the patrons of State Farm Insurance; you may want to buy an additional insurance policy for firearms. They are not necessarily covered under home owners insurance....

And if you're an NRA member don't forget to activate your free $2500 of firearm insurance. And if you're not an NRA Member, sign up and activate the insurance.

Yeah cause we all know an entire safe can never be stolen or it opened. Sounds like the thieves had ample time to do whatever they wanted. I am not saying safes are a bad thing, it just seems too many people have a false sense of security with them.

He's a judge. That = lawyer=money=might have a second house. If I had a second house that I visited once a month, I might not notice until I got there that stuff was missing. Could be that's why the long timeline of occurrence. Or it could be an inside job.
