A Maine couple is accused of burglarizing the home where a quadruple murder took place.

Murder suspect Joseph Eaton reportedly admitted to killing his parents, David and Cynthia Eaton, and the couple who took him in, Robert and Patti Eger, at the Eger's home in Bowdoin.

It's the same home police say was allegedly burglarized by a pair of suspects, adding insult to injury.

According to court papers, U.S. Border Patrol Agent Robert Eger, Jr. and his wife had been living in his parents' home following their deaths in April.

A family friend says Agent Eger Jr. returned from a trip on June 19 and found the home burglarized.

According to court paperwork, the couple reported more than two dozen items missing: jewelry, a large amount of cash, Agent Eger's gun, gear, badge and body armor, and two laptops.

Nine days later, police arrested Michael Hall and Jeanne Doughty two miles from the Eger's home. Investigators found several of the stolen items at the time of the arrests, including Agent Eger's gun and body armor, a laptop and jewelry, but no money.

They also found evidence of identity thefts they believe the couple was involved in; fake ID's based on more than a dozen stolen identities, forged checks, and phony credit cards.
