7 people in house:
2 go in, 1 does the stake out and they just happen to kill the most high profile person in that house.
Also if you gonna rob a house with 7 people in it, wouldn't it be a good idea to have a car, in which you can put the stolen goods. Or rob it while everyone is sleeping...
Having people break into a home to steal a phone doesn't sound right, this looks almost like a hit, premeditated murder.
