Exactly the one I was thinking of!!!!

“”Waters resides in the Hancock Park area of Los Angeles, which is approximately six miles west of downtown. Her second husband, Sid Williams, played professional football in the NFL[49] and is a former U.S. Ambassador to the Bahamas under the Clinton Administration.[citation needed] In 1990, Waters, along with 15 other African American women and men, formed the African-American Women for Reproductive Freedom.[50]””

I learned on “Storage Wars” that any safe, no matter how big. can be broken into in a matter of minutes.


All a lock can do is keep an honest man honest. A lock will not keep out a real thief.

“The Number One way to secure a safe so no one can ever break into it is make sure no one knows you have a safe.”

You put in a small safe with nothing of real value in it where it can be found easily and hide the real one with the valuables.

Then there was that case in 1976 where the bankers needed three hours to break into their own safe ...

Safe containing $10 million stolen from LA home

Chump change. Everyone knows the real money is in the freezers of Democrat Congressmen.
