But now as he holds up the Arkenstone he is able to prove to himself that truly he has become a burglar. This represents slyness because he is going behind Thorin’s and the other dwarves’ back by having the Arkenstone and also not saying anything to them. “But I suppose I must tell the dwarves about it---some time. They did say I could pick and choose my own share; and I think I would choose this, if they took all the rest!” (pg. 257).
The two were obviously distant and yet Victor fulfills his duty as a son and picks up his father’s remains. One could argue that he went only for the truck and the few hundred dollars his father had in the bank, though he did feel some kind of love for his father. This is proven when Victor admits that although he does not want to go into the trailer where his father died, he must because “there might be something valuable in there… pictures and letters and stuff like that” (419). The mundane tone Alexie uses emphasizes the sad routines one follows after a loved one dies; life continues. Alexie’s use of transitions between the present and memories of the past represent the memories that often pervade one’s mind when the experience a loss.
The coincidence implies Alfonso’s spirit behind the incident, using the helmet as his earthly embodiment. The helmet is mentioned the second time when Manfred proposed himself to Isabella. Its “tempestuous manner” (p.17) speaks for Alfonso’s disagreement with Manfred’s aggressive intention.

Ones first thought regarding property crime is burglary but this is a category, which includes among other crimes, burglary, theft, vehicle crime, arson, shoplifting and vandalism, some of which will be examined deeper within this exercise. According to section 9 of the Theft Act 1968 (not 1963 as in course literature), a person is guilty of burglary if they enter, or attempt to enter any building as a trespasser with the intention to steal, inflict grievous bodily harm, rape or cause unlawful damage. Burglary would become Aggravated Burglary (Section 10) should the offender have with him any firearm, imitation firearm, any weapon of offence or any explosive.

Burglary can be domestic or non-domestic, domestic burglary includes break-ins to all inhabited dwellings, including caravans, houseboats, chalets and also garages and sheds connected to these main buildings.
And most people won’t even know their identity’s been stolen until it’s too late and they become a victim to identity theft. Identity thieves can cause a lot of harm to their victims, such as stealing their personal information; several negative effects identity theft has on its victims are using your identity for criminal activities, financial loss, and it can even put people in physical danger.
