CBS reporter's apartment burglarized
2008-02-02

CBS reporter Lesley Stahl's apartment has been burglarized. I'll wait while you call your friends to tell them. The hard, cruel facts:

The brazen bandit stole several diamond watches, a pearl necklace, earrings, and gold and silver necklaces in the heist last Friday, cops said.

Okay. How soon will it be on "60 Minutes"? How soon will we hear Lesley say:

I was shocked. I felt violated. But I soon got to know the man who did it, and I came to understand his life, his dreams, his fears. Is prison really the place for a man like this? Are my little trinkets worth his freedom? I'm anguishing over it.

Don't bet on that, friends. Don't bet on it.

#2  According to the New York Post:

A burglar posing as a construction worker broke into "60 Minutes" reporter Lesley Stahl's Upper West Side penthouse and carted off more than $100,000 worth of jewelry and electronics, police said.

Hundred grand. It's good to be The Queen.

Ummm, that's NOT your decision, it's HIS, and he made the choice when he robbed your home.
