According to the Wikipedia article about the Petit family home invasion. Police were alerted and setted up a silent perimeter. Either they wasn't fast enough to respond or they were securing the wrong address. 🤔😔 Not entirely sure what happened though, I'm just speculating as it doesn't give much information about that. Either way, the whole family would be alive if police took action quicker. 7hours the invasion lasted, 7 fricken hours! They had to endure horrific acts of pure evil and the police couldn't even save them in the last hour of their lives despite having direct information about the invasion. 😔 RIP to Jennifer, Hayley and Michaela. ❤️

@@witch_trials_ If that was the case that's very bad policing. First priority is the victim, always. Checking no one is critically injured etc. And then getting descriptions of the person or persons they're going to be looking for. The father got out and went to a neighbour who also called the police, this was during his wife getting that he managed to escape his restraints and leave through the basement door that led to their back yard. His wife was being assaulted during this so it had to be within a half hour window before they set the whole house on fire with the girls in. So even if the police were around the perimeter thinking they're looking for the suspects on foot or in the victims car etc. They would of been alerted of the call and been notified that they were still in the victims residence. So what the hell they were doing, I have no clue. But it's clear to anyone who reads about this case that the lives lost could have been prevented if the police weren't so negligent. :/

You could hear a pin drop and after 10 or so minutes the cops arrived and I told em what happened. I felt useless as I didnt help them. We somewhat didnt really talk much after that event and the worse part is she moved in a month or so in to her exs place. And her kids now have to suffer because of both of them. Please please pray for the kids.
