Marine's Home Burglarized as She Gives Birth at Hospital

Random act? Somehow I doubt it. Marine Cpl. Claire Murphy's uniforms were trashed on the floor and her pet Iguana was killed. Someone must have known she would be gone for a long time. Imagine going to the hospital to welcome into the world a new child and then returning to your home to find this world also includes people doing something like this and then imagine you were among the few willing to lay down your life for even people like this.

RANCHO CORDOVA - When Claire Murphy gave birth to her daughter on Friday, it was the happiest moment of her life.

But that time also became one of sorrow after she found out someone broke into her home, while she was at the hospital giving birth.

"I've worked so hard to get everything taken care of, you know. And then this happens," said the 27-year-old new mom, who is also a corporal in the Marines.

Whoever broke into her Rancho Cordova apartment ransacked it and stole the baby's new clothes, and even baby formula. The culprit also took her camouflage uniforms out of the closet and dumped them on the floor.
