The perps probably watched the victims place their bags in the trunk before heading off for BBQ.

Great article, fishtank!

Lessons Learned:
•Be mindful about security and what would happen if your data fell into the wrong hands. Very mindful.
•Install a remote backup system (I like Backblaze).
•Take lots of pictures in case you want to make a post later.
•Take pictures of all your stuff before you go on a trip (just in case).
•Get a car alarm.
•Renting an American car in Detroit doesn’t grant you immunity from having your stuff stolen.
•Don’t park on side streets in Detroit!
•Don’t keep important items in your car.
•Be really nice to police officers. They have a very hard job.
•Batman in IMAX is amazing.

in some places rentals have license plates that are a dead giveaway they are rentals... crooks look for them
