A woman whose new home was targeted by burglars sent a powerful message to those responsible on the anniversary of the break-in.
ECHO life writer Jess Flaherty had recently moved in to the property in Liverpool with her boyfriend when thieves struck, in an experience shared by thousands of people each year. While Merseyside has lower burglary rates than many areas and has seen year on year falls, there were still 14 burglaries per day reported in our police force area in the year ending March 2022, according to the Office for National Statistics.
Each of those incidents leaves a lasting impact which can go far beyond the material possessions lost or damaged - as Jess explains in her letter to those responsible.
