"It's amusing to think what [the burglar] thought as he left our room," said Kathy M. Bencowitz '03, Harris' roommate.
Bencowitz said she believes that the burglar turned off her alarm clock Friday morning, after stealing her wallet and her roommates' backpacks.

Hours later, when Stuckey was arrested, police allege that he had Bencowitz's debit card in his pocket.
