Think Again About In-home Traps

31 August, 2009

Rather than compare home security systems and choose the right legal equipment, some people recklessly take matters into their own hands and create booby traps, thinking that this is their right. After all, it does seem somewhat obvious that one should be able to protect one's own home from intruders by any means possible.

Also, wouldn't setting your own traps be cheaper than buying a service like ADT alarm monitoring?

But beware. Contrary to what some of us might consider common sense, it's illegal to set dangerous traps in your home that could kill or seriously injure an intruder. In fact, there have been cases where a homeowner was actually sued by an injured burglar, and the burglar won. It may be hard to believe, but it's true.
