If she is afraid of a guy eating a bowl of ice cream in a recliner before she even processes the situation, she has no business being a cop.

Only because she’s part of the power structure.
Same. The last thing I do before I go to bed is lock the doors. Before then, it's pointless. My kids are coming and going constantly. I have a teenager and a 12 year old, plus all the other little crap heads that go in and out 100,000,000 times a day. If I'm walking past a door that's unlocked and everyone is in for the night, I'll lock it, but that rarely is the case before I go to bed.
The crazy type. He's not all there.
Um,.. you did see what happened in this case right?
Also there are other reasons for doing so.
I bet his family's regretting he didn't lock the door that night.
Do you live in an apartment also? Different circumstances when you're living with hundreds of people within a smaller radius vs living in a house in the suburb.
It's different living in an apartment complex than living in a single family home. I always kept my apartment doors locked for the reason that too often people try to come into the wrong apartment. I've had drunk people banging on the door, angry because they can't get in. I've had children try to get in when they get confused as to which one is theirs (or their friends). I saw no reason to make it easier for someone to come in. I was also a woman living alone, so it seemed the safer decision.
I'm not blaming people for not locking their doors. I'm just surprised how many people living in apartments do not. I'm also surprised how many people do not lock their cars. To each their own.

Straight to personal attack? Expected no less from you though.
Mistaken house identity occurs as well. Several years ago, my brother and I were in my mother's basement watching TV. My mother was sleeping in her room upstairs. We had not locked the front door as my brother was planning to leave soon. Suddenly my mother ran downstairs screaming that a man had just been in her room. He was standing at the foot of her bed. She was so frightened she couldn't scream. The man was also startled, murmured that he was at the wrong house, and quickly left. We later found out that he was a houseguest at a neighbors, had had permission to walk into the house upon his late arrival, and had gotten the address wrong. We keep the door locked now.
Agreed. It's such a different living environment. You can never be too careful.
Here in Christchurch, NZ, I've gone days where I forgot to lock my doors and no problem whatsoever. The next house from us is at least a football field away. But I also have a condo in Bangkok where I go for vacation each year. It's a 40 floor building with 700+ rooms, and there I'll usually lock the door as soon as I walk in.
There was an incident where a drunk man was trying to get in this woman's apartment at like 2 in the morning and she had to call security on him, luckily she had her door locked. They had to go look at the security camera to try and find out what happened the following day.
Apparently it was some korean tourists who were renting in 1 of the apartment and got drunk and were just running around knocking on everyone's door. Stupid stuff like that happens all the time.
Currently? No. Have I? Yes. Were my habits the same? Yes.
