something strange going on. incident happened @ 1:30p but police not called until 7:30p? WTF?

I didn't see the time in the article. It's possible they didn't leave her until then or she was terrified they would come back so she waited.

I'm guessing the PSP had top secret military data on it.

They threatened to kill her if a PSP was not handed over to them as random.

What does that even mean? Ransom? Even ransom doesn't make sense in this context. I love when techie/gadget sites try to report the news.

Anyhow, if this story is legit, then I'm sure it wasn't just about the PSP, these people obviously have some serious issues to do this to anyone for any reason.

I'm not sure, their editor must suck because ransom usually involves an exchange for something. Either someone she knew owed those criminals something or she got in trouble with them before.

Yea it all is Nuts. Apparently the guy that lived there did not leave to call police when they gave him a time frame to get a psp. Instead he just recorded a video and emailed it to others.

But yes, that is really fucked up. :\

Probably more to the story than it appears. I didn't see the mention of PSP but rather "Playstation gaming system"...was they wanting a PS4?

 

[sze5003]

The gadget site says psp the news site says PlayStation gaming system. Either way I think these guys were on bath salts or something.

It's not random if they ask it to be random

I would feel ashamed also... I mean a psp really?

At least ask for a ps4 or xb1 as they are just out or even a 3ds.

Maybe they're really, really huge Monster Hunter fans.

The first thing that comes to mind is a child who thinks that not getting their game system is literally the worst thing that has ever happened to them. Put that kind of mentality into the mind of somebody with no morality and I see how this sort of scenario could occur.
