Until her friend tells her that Bob is actually the type of criminal that the police would spare no expense to keep in jail, if they could only pin something on him-but nothing sticks because witnesses 'forget' what they saw or die before the trial in ' car accidents'.
So when she hears about a rich local businessman, Bob, the owner of a disguised criminal front, she breaks into his luxurious house and swipes a collection of pieces of jewelry, she thinks nothing of it. She's been caught a few times, sure, but most of the time, the police can't hold her long, as she's just a minnow in the criminal world, not worth the time and paperwork to keep in jail for long. Alice is a small-time crook whose meager income comes from relieving money and valuables off rich guys, and she's good at it.
