This is not a thread to bash LEOs. I have all the respect in the world for them. I have a simple question as to what you all would do in this situation.
This morning around 1 am I got a call from an old girlfiend who's living in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. She is screaming and crying that someone is trying to break in her house. She says two men are behind it and one is at each of her doors trying to kick them in. Before this, she was walking through the house shutting off lights on her way to bed. She makes it to the kitchen to see a man coming in her kitchen door. She screams causing him to momentarily hault, and therefor giving her time to slam the door shut in his face and lock it. He yells through the door that she mind as well open it because he was getting in anyway. She calls my sister, and is told to go to her room, push couch in front of door, and call police. She gets a hold of Bartlesville PD and they tell her someone will be out shorty. She lives three blocks from the PD. It took them a hour to finally get there. My little sister's boyfriend was the closest so he went over there and when he pulled up the two thugs bolted. PD told her she had nothing to worry about, but this morning she found a note on her car that said, "We'll be back for you sweetheart." She called the PD again and they came and got the note.
I found out today she didn't leave the backdoor unlocked, but it was a faulty lock. I replaced it and did a full lockdown on the place to make sure it was as secure as possible.
What are your thoughts and opinions of the whole thing including the 1 hour respond time in Bartlesville less than a halfdozen blocks from the station?
