Something similar happened a few years ago around me. It’s kinda funny to me when people commit random crimes and they end up targeting high profile people in positions of power.

  Eh, not missing much after the headline. A dude carjacked a US Rep and her official govt shit was in the car. It was easily tracked and recovered.

  In particular with the carjacking example, where there was a tracker and a laptop full of confidential government info, I imagine they’d have a real “oh fuck me” moment when they got tracked down super fast
The crime seems unrelated to who he is.
- I doubt he feels the same way.
  
  Someone stole luggage out of what would - to anyone - appear to be a random car in a parking garage. I don’t see how this could be framed as a politically-motivated crime.
