In 2001 in Derbyshire, UK, a man broke into the factory where he once worked several years as a security guard, to steal money from the gaming machines in the staff canteen.
During the break-in, the burglar was disturbed by the security guard who recognised him as being an old work colleague.
Realising that he had been recognised, the burglar bludgeoned his old work colleague to death, hitting him more than ten times with a hammer before dragging his body out into the car park.
At first, the police had no leads or idea as to who was behind the brutal attack.
They figured that it was a burglary and that the attack originally happened inside the building and not in the car park, but they had no idea as to who the burglar was.
A fingerprint was found at the scene, but it matched none on their ‘new’ electronic computer database.
Fortunately, the murderous burglar had broken into the factory a few months before and had also left fingerprints which were added to the ‘older’ wet ink fingerprint files.
Realising that there had been an identical burglary a few months before, the detectives decided to trawl through the old fingerprint files looking for a match for the print found at the latest burglary that resulted in the death of the security guard.
They found one.
A man was arrested and the case against him was made with the discovery of more evidence when they searched his car and house.
The burglar was eventually sentenced to life in prison for the murder with a further three years per burglary added to his sentence.
He was not going to see the light of day for a good 30 odd years.
And do you know how much he stole from those machines that night?

£200!
An innocent farther-of-three was murdered for a lousy £200.
It is a shocking story.
I don’t know much about the killer’s life at that time. I don’t know if he needed money ‘desperately’, it is said that during an interview with the police, the burglar told them that the break-ins were an act of revenge against his former employers and work colleagues.
I don’t know why, or what had happened for him to want revenge if that is true, all I do know is that he has lost around 30 years of his freedom, an innocent man died, and his family was torn apart… for a lousy £200.
What an absolute waste!
If the money was the reason for the burglary, then it is incredibly sad because there are many ways to make money which don’t result in lengthy stays in prison and/or the death of innocent people.
It’s well known that most people want things ‘now’.
A lot of people are lazy and impatient and I guess breaking into a factory to steal £200 could be seen as a decent haul if you are in and out within a few minutes.
But is it really worth it?
There are many ways to make that kind of money… and many of them don’t require you to work hard for it.
One incredibly simple way to make money is to write and send emails to people.
What I am writing today… will make money.
I made over £4,000 one weekend sending a simple email as a ‘test!’
The emails I write and send sell products such as The Email Secret.
For those who don’t know, The Email Secret is a product which shows you how to make money writing and sending simple emails (like this one) and how to build an online information publishing business similar to mine which has made millions of pounds in sales over the years.
I am not alone in this; tens of thousands of people worldwide make thousands of pounds each month writing and sending simple emails which promote high priced products.
Making money sending emails gives you a freedom other businesses can’t.
It allows you to travel the world because you can write and send emails from the four corners of the globe. You do not need an office or any staff to run an email business.

PS… A quick email writing tip for you… watch documentaries, watch films, watch television dramas, read books, read magazines, read news articles, read articles online and listen to podcasts.
All of the above will give you a wealth of information and ideas which can be used in writing articles and emails.
The story I shared with you today is from a BBC show which interviews detectives about cases they worked on and how they cracked them resulting in a conviction.
And that story works nicely to highlight that crime is not the best way to make money compared to writing and sending emails.
