how in the world could she rob two men working on her personal own house, that doesn't even sound right, something fishy about the whole thing. if they didn't complete the job, and maybe through a friendly request, asking for her money back, because they didn't finish the job, they probably weren't going to give her money back, so she probably felt like they were running over her, so she pulled out her weapon, to get her money back for an incomplete job, but they called it robbery because of the weapon.
