legally, wouldn't the law require them to wear/show ID? And wouldn't they proudly show ID, unless they're ashamed of what they're doing?

Made me wonder if there are some "freelance" militia-type groups invading homes, stealing money, phones, and laptops from homeowners. Women with children and without a male in the home would seem most vulnerable. It could also be that the previous occupants of that home were the intended prey.

Hope there are follow-ups to this story.
