| Multiple jewelry stores in Massachusetts targeted in smash-and-grab robberies | |
| 2021-12-17 | |
Roland Racicot, the owner of Roland's Jewelry, said thieves broke into his 30-year-old Medford business and stole about $15,000 in merchandise the same night Touch of Midas was robbed. The two stores are approximately eight miles apart. "You work your butt off your whole life and then you see what happens. And that hurts," Racicot said. Some of the items stolen from Roland's Jewelry were for sale while others were waiting for repair. Rita Ranzo said her Movado wristwatch, a gift from her late husband that was being repaired, was stolen from Roland's. "My husband worked to pay for that. It wasn't cheap. It was expensive. And these people just come in and think they can take it without any consequence?" Ranzo said. "I hope it turns their wrist green. Believe me, I do." | |

| #3 You notice the pattern of antifa only attacking luxury goods shops? Thus nobody can really complain. Luxury goods are super overpriced and who really has any sympathy for jewelry store owners. Ever tried to sell back jewelry? They pay pennies. But if you want it, it's $2000 or GTFO. |

| #1 Time to redesign the store security. Like adding a a bullet proof Dead Zone double door entrance area. Or Instant roll up barrier walls like used in the UK banks. Or Display Flush concept. Where at the push of a button the display cases drop below sales floor level into a secured vault. |
