who is dumb enough to leave one’s computer in the car in crime ridden Washington DC?

Computers are easily sold by petty thieves, but professional thieves actually look for computers of business folk to steal information: It's not just the business files: it also has your email, bank, etc. passwords and a lot of other personal stuff on it.

And why is all that information on the computer that he carries with him everywhere? Doesn't he use a backup thumb drive/external disk/cloud backup?

And doesn't he put a pass word to open these files?

LOL! Those Zip drives were garbage—good riddance.

I've always worked with very large graphics files going back to the early Mac days of the late 80's, and for a period of a few years a Zip drive was about the only thing going for portable external media to transport files to vendors. Yep, what a piece of crap. Remember the dreaded "tick tick tick" of a corrupted Zip disk? CD's were such a blessing by comparison.

“It’s a pretty professional job,” John Solomon told RCI of the break-in, “but it’s probably just a coincidence.

“It was probably just a street criminal searching for pass codes,” he added. “Or it could be someone searching for my Ukraine stuff, we don’t know at this point.”

It appears to be a targeted political hit because Solomon said nothing else was taken from his car, including cash.

Paul Sperry of Real Clear Investigations reported:

Gibbs rule #39:

Gibbs' Rule 39, "There is no such thing as Coincidence!

I was working a contractual job in Annapolis MD, in a rather upscale area of town. We were doing a payroll implementation and I and some others on the project were put up in a hotel next door prior to go-live. I had my car parked in the parking garage of the building and when I went to get my suitcase out of the trunk after working a 15-hour day I noticed my glove box was open and papers were strewn all over the front seats. I didn’t see any damage to my car and actually may have accidently left it unlocked (yes – stupid I know). All they got was a few CD’s and fortunately didn’t pop the trunk and steal my luggage.

At the time I had lived in and worked in Baltimore City most of my life and sometimes had meetings in DC.

I learned you never leave anything visible, not even as much as couple of pennies in the console or even an umbrella, anything at all that some crack head might think worth smashing your window out to grab.

If the data on that computer was that sensitive, why would a supposedly experienced reporter leave said computer exposed inside his car parked on a public street in crime ridden Washington DC? I call: Bullshit BS

You don’t leave valuables in your car in plain view. It’s not rocket science.

“Rule 39? That should be more like rule 1!”

Whenever, the elite left wing thugs are involved, rule #1 would often be appropriate.

“A gun safe in the trunk would be a wise precaution for people like him.”

my gun safe is steel cabled under the driver’s seat in my car and i have one under the passenger’s seat in my wife’s car. Fortunately do not have to use them that often.
wonder if this was a variation of a canary trap?

Horribly unreliable. They would fail catastrophically and take all the data with them.
