He is suggesting that you are the housemate from the tale, anonymously defending yourself.
My take on it is that it is entirely the housemates fault and the loss is her responsibility. Inability to adequately master the use of a door and ignorance of the value of the contents she left unsecured do not absolve her. Why would you not give the handle a twist and the door a solid pull to check that you have indeed locked it, particularly if you are unfamiliar with it.
I do commend samueldavidkeyes reaction to it. You are a good person. I hope she comes to appreciate the break you have given her.
