I dunno, it doesn&#x27;t seem like a huge leap to stop investigating someone as a burglar once you notice they&#x27;re a college prof. Especially if you&#x27;ve stopped them for nothing more specific than wearing a knit hat and &quot;puffy coat,&quot; and they&#x27;re not wearing a puffy coat (did you not look at the picture? or read the article, for that matter, he mentions that he was wearing a blazer).
