A vile crime occurred there, to be sure. Then came the insult of an early release.
Not blaming the victim, of course. But you’ve got to plan for such an invasion ahead of time. Have a basic home alarm system installed. And if you’re not comfortable with firearms, keep strong police-grade pepper spray handy. (Fox and Sabre are good brands.)
A baseball bat is useful as well.
Rottweilers make a pretty decent deterrent. Hard to stab somebody with a 120 lb. dog hanging on your arm.
