This idiot was my room mate off and on for about 2 years til he stole from my former room mate. Took his laptop, and took 50 dollars combined from my kids piggy banks which happened to be locked in my bedroom. Brian picked the lock on my bedroom door and broke in and stole everything mentioned. Needless to say, I hope he stays locked up for a while!
