Homewreckers ... Literally.

While Lisa Abbett and her husband enjoyed a dream vacation in Paris, a group of as many as 50 Mass. teens completely ransacked her home, causing more than $40K in damages!
Vivian Manning-Schaffel: "They destroyed the doors, both bathroom's doors -- kicked them in, the ceilings, the walls ... smashed the marble countertops in the bathroom, urinated in every single room in my house and all the drawers and the bed ... destroyed all the bedding. There was blood on the wall," Abbett says. "To do what they did was worse than a pack of animals would have done ... they stole my husband's truck. They trashed his truck. They stole everything in the house. Everything."
Abbett believes that the guilty teens somehow finagled their way into her home when her 18-year-old swung by to check on the place. "He was an easy target and they took full advantage," she says. "They knew we weren't home. Not one of these kids were his friends."
What's more, a detective from the area said he's never "seen or smelled anything like it. The stench of urination alone was devastating."
The four high-school students who were positively identified in the crime are being tried as adults. Apparently, pulling off a nasty endeavor in this vein is now called a "rager."
Funny -- when we were growing up, it was called a breaking and entering, vandalism and burglary.
The suspected "ragers" might want to consider boning up on their mental faculties whilst whiling away their time in the joint. One of them set up a Facebook page called "Homewrecker Crew," where he bragged about their exploits. Seriously, that's a great way to conceal a crime.
Have you guys ever heard of "ragers?" Have they happened where you live?

Just wait 10 years or so and the homeowners should break into the rager’s homes. EYE FOR AN EYE
@Krista — Oh, yes. Just they wait until it is their turn to come home to that.
Disgusting. This reminds me of a video I saw on one of those “World Wildest” or “world’s Most Shocking” or something like that. This pack of idiots took a video of themselves doing exactly this (it wasn’t someone’s HOME yet though, thank god!). I can’t remember what the charge was though. I saw it a few years ago. Maybe someone else has seen it?
I think everyone involved should be responsible for paying for every penny of the repairs even if it takes them decades to do it. After they get out of prison their wages should be garnished until that couple is paid back in full plus interest. What those kids did is horrible.
gang of hoods cowards bring them to us we’ll kick the s—t out of them,squeese their b—ls until their eyes pop,get their d—k out and je-k it until there is no c—e left.
Her 18 yo must not have much of a backbone. Doesn’t sound like he even called the cops.
This is so sick. I agree that each of them should have to pay for every penny of the repairs—first take part of whatever they make at their job in prison and then when they get out, garnish their wages until the damage is paid in full.
this is bull becuz her son shuld have done something it doesnt say they beat him or threatened him not to say anything








That’s sick. I hope they hang them by their balls!
