How home invasions work, according to a former burglar

  • 7 months ago
Stephen Gillen says he was the leader of a specialized four-person burglary gang carrying out robberies in the UK during the late ’80s and early ’90s. The gang targeted high-value homes and commercial properties, such as jewelry stores and designer-brand warehouses.
Gillen speaks to Insider about his experience in breaking into properties, the stolen-goods market, and home-security systems. Home invasions are on the rise globally. Recent high-profile examples include the robbery of Kim Kardashian in Paris and of the UK footballer Raheem Sterling during the 2022 World Cup.
Gillen claims he spent a total of 20 years in prison and was released in 2006. Nowadays, he is the CEO of the media-production agency Roar Media Creative Studio.
