Man notified of burglary via app goes home murders burglar [Liverpool]

Robbery includes violence. There was none until he decided to murder the burglar on his return to his house.

You can add as many sub clauses as you wish. I've said my piece and I'm comfortable with my position.

That isn’t a sub clause. That is the law.

A bit like deciding to drive somewhere and kill somebody because you don’t like what they are doing.

Violence isn't a prerequisite. The act of burglary is a criminal act in and of itself.

Burglary is not the same as robbery.

They are spelt and pronounced differently.

To normal everyday people, they're the same thing and I've used both terms regardless.

Anyway, enough semantics for one night, no wonder the public has no trust in its institutions anymore.

I'm thinking 95% of people would phone the cops. Sounds like these two went round to kill. I think there is more to this story, like they knew who the guy was.

I assumed it was gang related when I first read the story, as it would make it easier to explain why they went back into the house to essentially execute the bloke.

I would think that once the trial is finished they’ll be a bit more information on the accused as they’re bound to have form.

They really aren’t.

Robbery attracts a more severe sentence as it includes violence.

You could Google it and see.

No worries.

That's a guest at a party, not a burglary, if we're being semantic.

And a phone is not a property, as I've already defined what a property is in the context of my post.

Guests at a party are trespassing if asked to leave and they remain without lawful excuse, or they access a part of the property they don't have consent to access.

Sorry this is absurd. What you are talking about is real property or real estate. But that isn't the only form of property.

As property is a legal concept, I think I'll rely on that rather than "the university of life and school of hard knocks".

Or your phone isn't property, and it isn't capable of being stolen, and you would be wasting your time reporting it as a crime, if it was taken from you.
