Sounds like somebody blabbed about the safe.
Very sad and disgusting what happen to your grandparents. It had to be someone that knew your grandparents had a safe with money. I would look at family and close friends of the family or maybe even neighbors… Not random…
so sad
Too bad the victims didn’t know to keep their life savings in a bank.
