In an online post, Stokes said that on October 17, while his wife and two little children were at their Castle Eden, County, home, jewelry, valuables, and a “good deal of personal items” were stolen.
“To be clear, my sole motivation in sharing these photographs is not the recovery of material items, even though we have lost cherished possessions,” he continued. The goal is to apprehend those responsible.
The fact that my wife and two small children were present while this atrocity was committed is by far its worst aspect.
Fortunately, none of my relatives suffered any injuries. However, it makes sense that the experience has affected their emotional and mental health.
We can’t stop thinking about how much worse things could have been.
He concluded the statement by expressing gratitude to the police for their “outstanding” support of his family and their ongoing “incredibly hard” work in identifying the criminals.
