jeffw,

Something similar happened a few years ago around me. It’s kinda funny to me when people commit random crimes and they end up targeting high profile people in positions of power.

Definitely a “Whoopsies!” moment, by the thief.

jeffw,

In particular with the carjacking example, where there was a tracker and a laptop full of confidential government info, I imagine they’d have a real “oh fuck me” moment when they got tracked down super fast

jeffw,

Eh, not missing much after the headline. A dude carjacked a US Rep and her official govt shit was in the car. It was easily tracked and recovered.

gregorum,

The crime seems unrelated to who he is.

ABCDE,

I doubt he feels the same way.

gregorum,

Someone stole luggage out of what would - to anyone - appear to be a random car in a parking garage. I don’t see how this could be framed as a politically-motivated crime.

It’s random but still funny because everybody in the bay knows to NEVER leave anything in your car.
