Where can I look up these documents, AM?
Very interesting info. The separation date is pretty puzzling. Her stories don't make sense to me but hopefully someone can help me find a way to reconcile all of them.
Burglary is a distinct crime from theft.
BURGLARY: to unlawfully enter into any structure with the intent to commit a crime.
(Example: AL broke into the house prior to BC arriving to set a trap - perhaps letting CL in to lie in wait, or to hide items to use in the abduction such as materials to bind her hands, a weapon, etc. Just theoretical. I don't have a clue what transpired at the house.)
THEFT: to take someone elses property without the owners consent and with the intention to permanently deprive the owner of its use or possession.
(EXAMPLE: stealing a car. Or a dump truck.)
Info from here. Very helpful & informative.

I think the realtor's lock is a huge piece of evidence although I don't know what role it plays in the case. If spotting it in the wrecked car is what tipped off LE to AL as suspect, then kudos to those cops. If it was indeed a mechanical lock, I'll reiterate what I said before: magnets.
