Has it ever occurred to you that your air conditioner unit on the side or back of your home could be a potential target for thieves? Every homeowner considers that the house could be broken into, so we do our best to lock doors and windows, put important items in safes and maybe even install an alarm system. Generally, besides the car parked in the driveway and a bike left unlocked, the other items around the home don’t seem to be of much value or are too difficult to take off with. The patio furniture is just too large and a bit faded.

Well, thieves in Muncie and in Delaware have been arrested for the theft of air conditioning units from at least 2 businesses and homes in the area. The units are cut from the electric power supply, removed and loaded into SUVs. Police believe that they are then dismantled and parts can be sold for about $100.00 per unit. Three suspects in Delaware were recently charged with theft, criminal mischief and other related charges. They are being held on about $10,000 bail. There’s no doubt that once convicted, these individuals will be court ordered to learn some empathy and better decision making skills in a Delaware theft education course.

These thieves probably thought that home owners insurance would cover any damages the homeowners endured and that they could make a clean get away in a quiet business area or suburban street. Unfortunately for them, witnesses saw the thieves load the items in the back of a Jeep Liberty. In Muncie, one of the homes actually had surveillance footage that caught the faces of the criminals!

Online theft and shoplifting classes are definitely in their future. These courses are a comprehensive and easy way to learn new skills to change and stop illegal behavior. Clients of theft diversion classes learn how their behavior impacts society and what the risks and consequences are of future arrests. They are educationally based classes that teach how to understand impulse control disorders, why people steal and ways to prevent this behavior with stress management techniques and improved communication skills.

Online classes are an extremely convenient way to fulfill this court order after a theft conviction. Clients can access the course from any computer that is connected to the Internet. This includes PCs, IPads, Smartphones and laptops from home; the library, the local coffee shop or anywhere there is Internet availability, anywhere in the United States. People really like the freedom of being able to learn at their own pace and whenever they have free time. There is no predetermined schedule. Clients can login and out as many times as they’d like until the class is completed.

Online classes give clients the ability to finish the class quickly to make a court deadline. Specifically, traditional theft classes held in classrooms usually meet once a week. If you have to take a 10-hour class, it could take you 10 weeks. However, a 10-hour class online can be finished in one weekend if so desired.

Taking your court mandated theft class online is definitely the most interesting, affordable and stress free way to fulfill the legal requirement.
