Wegman told the two burglars while waiting for police, "I worked for everything I have, all my life. I worked day and night for many years. Why don't you try getting a job?"
Wegman had his garage broken into three weeks before and had $4,000 worth of equipment stolen. Apparently, Linson admitted to that burglary as well, promising to return everything.
