Hollywood celebrities are being hit left and right by burglars ... but as far as the crooks are concerned they're nobody special, because high-end break-ins are out of control this year.
TMZ broke the story, Dodgers star Yasiel Puig was the latest to be hit, with thieves making off with more than half a mil in jewelry. Other celebs hit include Alanis Morissette, Cesar Millan and Derek Fisher. Law enforcement tells us ... they believe the celebs were not targeted because they flaunted their jewelry and other riches on social media. The sources say these celebs all live in ritzy areas of L.A., and there has been an influx of criminals because California has recently opened the prison doors.
Recent laws have addressed terrible prison overcrowding by ordering the release of a number of non-violent criminals. There are also drug offenses that have been reduced from felonies to misdemeanors. Our sources say a number of the people released are burglars, and now that they're out they're going back to what they know. As a result, there has been an explosion of burglaries in the L.A. area. And there's something else. We're told a number of people who were hit, including some of the celebs who have become victims, did not turn their alarms on because they assumed it wasn't necessary since they live in what they believed were safe areas.
lol- bet Ceasar regrets training the dogs to be docile now-
You can only insult, belittle and restrict the police so much before crime spirals out of control. We’re reaching that breaking point.
I'd say odds are a zillion-to-one he voted for Trump.
I read that Zelda Fitzgerald..wife of the author of The Great Gatsby..was the inspiration for the song Witchy Woman
Good God...so much to say here.But for now I'll just say...I could be worth a billion dollars and I wouldn't own any more than a few hundred dollars worth of jewelry.Maybe because I've modeled my life after my Dad's (who was a Depression Baby):
"Live below your means".
IOW...I don't have the slightest sympathy for such celebs.If anyone was being harmed my attitude might be different...unless it was Babs Streisand or Meathead.
Gotta get new glasses.
I thought the headline said Celebrity BUGGERIES................
There’s more than one way to “give back to da community”. LOL
Yup, they can cry me a river. Hopefully they chinzed on the insurance coverage.
Naw, it has nothing to do with celebs flashing bling. No way. Celebs have the RIGHT to stupidly show off their wealth to every thief out there. Geez, it’s such a bother to turn on the alarm.
The article failed to state how many burglaries were done by illegals.
"'Cause that's where the good stuff is."
Liberal police-hating Hollywood celebrities hit by thieves - why that is just tragic !
Dang. I saw the word “explosion” and got my hopes up.
DO THE MATH, DEMONRATS!
WHY SHOULD WE CARE?? The entertainment industry as a whole fully supported the propositions that let these Thugs Out of Prison in the first place.
Are they SO BLATANTLY RACIST that they don’t think these people have a right to do their Jobs and Work in the field of their chosen profession, robbin,rapin,killin.??
Wow, the real world is like this? No body told me....
Thanks to strict gun control laws in La La Land, those poor, misguided burglars have the peace of mind of knowing that none of their victims are likely to be armed.
I work in LA.
It’s a third world $hit hole.
Truly disgusting the filth that inhabits that area.
Sorry for the sugar coating.
Alanis Morisette was probably burgled by a manic-depressive feminist wallowing in self-pity.
Now THAT would be ironic.
