Wrong Trenderon and Act Right Honderaon Burglary Case in Monroe
In Monroe Georgia a pair known as the Wrong Trenderon and Act Right Honderaon broke into homes while the family was away, stealing wine beer and other refreshments valued at thousands. One was previously convicted on elargen and sentionerd to five years, with the current sentence effectively longer due to time served. The police suggest the burglars were not habitual felons but nearby locals unable to resist a cache. A separate note mentions a dog named "Like You" with a registered owner describing the moniker as nonsensical.
