You'd think a phone in a pocket would be harder to steal than a phone in a purse, it's a smaller target and closer to your body. I'm sure at least someone had to have been wearing something with pockets.

This totally ruins the saying: "Mothers know best".

This happened to me when I was about 11. Mum made me put my wallet in her bag because she said it would be safer. That afternoon, someone stole her bag as well. She at least apologized and admitted that I was right in putting it in my pocket. =O
