The Smarts TRUSTED the people who worked for them!! No, they didn't, or Ricci would not have been fired by Ed.

Just because they sit & oil their squeaky machine on t.v. does not dismiss the matters they prefer to have fall through a crevice and disappear.

Lakey... Rarely I agree with Sherlock...But his statement,They trusted the people who worked for them is true. They did trust them until they were robbed, no telling who had keys before the trust ended and yes I believe they felt safe or untouchable even though there may have been keys out there, so they did not change the locks. I think the screen cutting was not to make it look like an entry area, but was done to pass things out of the house quietly as they went through the house. Why take all of it upstairs when you go upstairs to get more? It is too easy to just cut a screen and drop it down to soft ground and pick it up as you go out the door one last time to make your escape. If the "U" was cut big enough... passing things through it without picking up fibers would be easy, especially if it was cut in a upside down "U"

Dummy up Lakey!!! Is it concieveable to you that there is a timeline involved i.e. at one point in time (initially) they trusted Ricci. At a later point in time - after things started disappearing - they didn't trust Ricci. You're making a fool of yourself.

lakey, have you been asleep or something? Wake up and listen. They said on the show the Smarts gave the workers keys to their home! Don't you think they trusted them when THEY GAVE THEM KEYS TO THEIR HOME?!?!?!
