True about the use of the alarm at night. But if Ricci had a key and could come and go, he would have known a code or (what I think is far more likely) that the Smarts never used their alarm at all. My point is that he would know a lot about the family's specific habits and their general attitude toward safety awareness.

Wonder if anyone has considered that Ricci, having worked for some time in the Smart home, has shared with LE his observations about people/things in the household. Could that be the reason that LE was so anxious to hold him until the alleged kidnapper is found?
